I'm nearing the end on normal. It's a great experience, but there are a few spots where it can be rather difficult and frustrating. Part of it has to do with the enemies and part of it has to do with areas not giving you an entirely clear clue on where to go. Thus, if you don't understand that you have to go one way and not the other, you'll find yourself struck down by an instant death. I also had the damnest time trying to swing on a rope in the ice caverns. For whatever reason, I couldn't get to the other side no matter how I tried to swing and I finally got it by accident after dying ten times.
The story has gone from one great sequence to the next without letting up. Even the slower puzzle platforming areas can still be interesting. Easter Egg - Early on in the museum, you can find the Naughty Dog paw printed on a box.
I really wish you could select which gameplay variants you want to search for in matchmaking. Standard deathmatch, plunder, and pistols/grenades feel like the only matches that are worthwhile to me. It also feels like there's a great chance to get non standard games with the larger map selection. I just finished playing a bunch of matches and it felt like less than half of them were standard deathmatch games and were instead snipers/pistoles and pistols/grenades.
