I don't play Uncharted games

 

Or Tomb Raider games :D

I beat the first Uncharted, though, and I played Tomb Raider 2013 for a few hours. They're just not for me.



Watch me stream games and hunt trophies on my Twitch channel!

Basically he's saying a game that has you in the wild, with an open world, and hunting is a Far Cry 3 clone.

Its a stretch. With his logic AC and MGSV are also FC3.

Hmm, marooned on an island filled with people out to get you. Trying to get back to your friends, ending up as a lone warrior anyway. Optional 'tombs' with treasure. Sounds familiar. The big difference for me was that FC3 did not take itself seriously which made it the better game. TR suffered too much from a disconnect between the player's actions and the character it was trying to portray.

Here's a good spoiler free comparison

Although I have to disagree on the draw for story. In FC3 I was actually looking forward to the next crazy cut scene or character. I can't remember any of the side characters from Tombraider while I still rememer a lot from FC3's confrontations.

Anyway if you like the Tombraider reboot you'll enjoy FC3 as well.

I own plenty of first person games but I'm just not a fan of that perspective. I've bought great games in spite of my bias and really enjoyed them but most of the time, it's just a deterrent. I think I'll give FC a try after I finish Alien Isolation, though. You've sold me.

Don't know about you guys I didn't like the first tomb raider, puzzle gameplay was decent, had lots of content but it felt tedious and story was bland. Side Characters was one dimensional . I hope the story improve alot in rise of tomb raider. I don't play uncharted games :p

Same here. If square gives it a better presentation thanks to the improved horsepower, I may buy it again!

I played Rise of the Tomb Raider on a PC with 1440P and everything maxed out other than AA. To be honest I found it quite overrated personally. I didn't like TR2013 very much either though, I preferred the OG Tomb Raider style that didn't feel quite so hand-holdy. The new one feels like a lesser imitation of Uncharted, and it doesn't have the personality, I find Lara soooooooooo bland.

I have only played UC4 a little bit at a friend's house, I don't have a PS4. But I have to vote with that, it's just on another level.

That is exactly how I felt with the reboot and fear it will be the same in the new game.

Tomb Raider as a series in general is better than Uncharted as a series

However I did enjoy Uncharted 4 more tahn ROTR.

I think this is because with the new entries, Tomb Raider has kinda forgotten what its supposed to be, about Tomb Raider,exploration,etc, something Uncharted 4 has nailed imo

I agree with everything here other than Tomb Raider series being better than Uncharted. I think there were only two 'great' Tomb Raider games, the first and TR2. TR3 was decent but wasn't super great. Then with 'The Last Revelation' it really started to become mediocre. Chronicles was very similar, but slightly improved. Angel of Darkness was pretty awful. I thought Legend was pretty good, but I didn't think it was oustanding. It's probably the best outside of I and II though. Anniversary and Underworld were mediocre. And then TR2013 really rebooted things, and I didn't care for it, it just wasn't a fun game to me. Not very much real exploration, and the QTEs were groanworthy and hurt replayability.

Just my two cents, everyone's free to their opinions :)
