Both games are extremely similar gameplay wise but uncharted puts you at a disadvantage since the AI is smarter in that game. Not only that they swarm you on the hardest difficulties. On Tomb Raider, I merced everyone like rambo without fail. It wasnt a challenge.. To me, Uncharted would make more sense as a movie and would have the characters and script that could more easily be put over to an audience. With that said, with Uncharted gone, I Tomb Raider makes a great supplement until Naughty Dog drops Last of Us 2. Writers and artists have been used by other studios and increased the quality of their studios post Sony. That says a lot. Crystal Dynamics learned a lot from them, but I dont believe they have the magic of what makes Naughty Dogs games so great. For instance, if Ellie grew up, I believe shed have a number of qualitiies as a female protagonist that lara just fails to even achieve as a character. I like the new Lara better than the old one, but I still have yet to figure her out as a character. Her motivations and true goals. With Nathan Drake we knew that from square one. Its curious though....what is it about Tomb Raiders gameplay that grabs you more than uncharted. |
Ithink you've answered your own question. people might prefer it because it makes them feel like Rambo and the game becomes a walk in the park.
I remember in the very first uncharted, the section where you have stone ruins and enemies coming from the opposite side and from the top of a walk way, I tried using a traditional tactic. stay behind cover and shoot. it didn't work as they start flanking you and push you from cover to cover. they even use grenades to flush you out before mowing you down. the TRR on the hand had very simple A.I. I didn't dislike it, but at no point did I feel threatened or challenged. however, I feel the challenging A.I adds to character, personality of Nathan as well as the story.
