This was my main complaint with the franchise. The number of enemies crossed with the gunplay just not being that satisfying to begin with.

Otherwise it's fantastic.

To add to that, especially when you are playing on crushing where 1 or 2 shots will kill you.... It is not so much the number of enemies that come at you. It is how they come at you in waves as you trigger them. It just makes combat frustrating to clear a room...take two steps away from your cover...only to have 5 more enemies jump out and attack...and repeat 2-3 times per combat encounter. It makes it feel like there are a lot more enemies than there really is and can be frustrating.

Started the first game today. Forgot how easy it was to get sucked in and lose track of time. Already 44% done.

I just started Uncharted 2 today myself.

Just finished the first one. Still as fun as I remember. I'll probably start the second one next week.

This is onsale for $19.99 digital/physical copy for the PS4. I had $11 in digital credit and somerewards points, I ended up paying .65 cents in the end.

Finally getting around the playing these ... I'm about 30% through the first one right now. While I really like the adventuring part of it, the gun fight parts are already getting old. Are all 3 of these games more gun-fighting than tomb raiding?

Decker

Yes. But the other two (as well as 4) all have much more exploration , are much longer and just generally better games than the first. The one thing that the first does really well is voice acting and establishment of character. I do think it’s important to play that one first.

I felt the combat gets better starting with part 2 also. The mechanics are pretty shitty in the first game.

joeblow69

Ugh, OK, I'm giving up on the first one. These gun fights go on WAY too long. Who finds that fun? bleh ... I'm grumpy now.

I would bump the difficulty all the way down and push through it. It's got a decent story and a good introduction to the characters that you spend a good chunk with the rest of the games.

davidh777

Yeah, just dial down the difficulty and see how that goes.

Worst part is that, long gun fights, is an issue with most of the Uncharted games. At least in the last game, Uncharted 4, they tell you when you can just run away. But most of the time you have to handle the clown's car.
