Retarded story aside, the game was a huge drop in level design from the previous Naughty Dog games. It's so damn linear. I'm not sure if it's because they fucked up on the level design or if it's a conscious design to make the levels linear so as to accommodate blind gamers (which I can understand).

All that nonsense about Seattle being as large and explorable as the wide linear areas of Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy is a lie. Another thing was that the game is so damn boring. It was not a fun game to play. It had some nice bits like the museum bit, the guitar mini game and "Take On Me" but all the good stuff is too far and few between.

I'm not a big fan of the series but the first game is a lot better than the second game. Some aspects of the game design are also pared back like being unable to swap between bottles and bricks like you can do in the first game. Doesn't make sense.

Pacing is just awful...
