I heard it picks up in the second half, I'm only at chapter 10 myself and loving every moment of it. Even the climbing is great when the view is so spectacular! I'm also replaying the three first ones (got the TLoU + Nathan Drake Collection bundle), UC4 really is another level in nearly every aspect. I think quite a few are disappoined due to the slower pace and fewer action sequences in UC4, but I found it refreshing as the frenetic pace of UC3 made it ineffective after a while, the wow factor diminshes when you overuse the same tools and set-up's through the game. That cruise ship escape was something else though... |
I'm definitely a fan of good pacing and you're right. If it's always "dialed up to 10" we become numb to it. I always like it when a game knows how to ramp things up, give you a "Holy shit, that was cool" moment, and then dial things down. The quiet moments are what make the big moments stand out. That's what made Gears of War Judgment suck while Gears 1-3 were awesome. The pacing.
