I'm not arguing that it wasn't significantly better, but it's not a reinvention.  Breath of the Wild is a reinvention not because it's better (I actually think I like Skyward Sword slightly better myself), but because it significantly changes the conventions of the series.  Uncharted 2 basically does the same things Uncharted does, just better. The only major change is multiplayer.

Uncharted didn't need to reinvent itself though till part 4. Which had a considerable change in game play and some unscripted sections and containing some actual exploring. What Uncharted 2 did do very well where the animations, which all looked very fluently. Also Uncharted 2 was the first entry containing really big stepieces.

The context of the conversation was that critics prefer games that reinvent themselves, with Uncharted 2's reception being an example.  So, that's what I was commenting on.
