When they drop from the ladder the gate says Saint Francis -- 1016. Didn't pull up anyplace obvious with that address, but there was a St Francis Boys Home in England that was home to horrific child abuse.

I think it's supposed to be either 1616 or 1816, i.e. the year the orphanage was founded.

However, the city may be New Haven, CT, since it has an orphanage called St. Francis, a river, and the skyline looks kinda similar.

I love that this game just lets Nolan North and Troy Baker pal around.

Well here have this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhZa2NFNyws. Nolan North is given a list of quotes to read in his Nathan Drake voice while Troy Baker is tasked with guessing whether each line was said by Nathan Drake or Drake the rapper. They really do seem to have a lot of fun together.

The city with the orphanage might be Philadelphia. Colonial structures, political buildings, skyline and the Schuylkill River.

I can't wait till we get to the playground part and can shoot some B-ball outside of the school.

Then this lunk of a guy who didn't like me no more, took away my book and called my mom a whore. I got in one little fight and the nun got pissed and said "we're throwin' you back on the streets and you're not gonna be missed."

I can't say I have any idea what city that is, but it can't be the US, because orphanages haven't been a thing here for a long while. It made more sense back when he was growing up on the streets of Argentina, because that's a thing in South America.

Is this really going to be the last Uncharted game? That seems like a bit of a shame.

Not Boston because it's a river? The Charles, y'all! It separates Boston and Cambridge!

Doesn't seem like Boston to me but I couldn't let that one stand.

And then Ironicus got it. that's what I get for letting my civic pride get in the way of my video watching. My bad! I'm leaving the original as a testament to my shame.

I decided to get the new Doom instead of this game, so I'll get to see this game blind. It'll be like looking into an alternate reality of buying a different videogame instead of something more significant changing.

Basically Troy and Nathan are the greatest :allears:

There are some cutscenes in there but nothing that wasn't in the commercials for the game

I love the reference to Last Crusade with the cut from smiling young Drake to getting punched in the face adult Drake

This is the first Uncharted game that I haven't played before a LP. I always looked forward to Chip showing off how much better he is than me. Now I'll just have to see how I do once I pick up a PS4.

I loved UC4 after only playing the first game in the series and then watching the LPs.

The gunplay in UC4 is great and challenging especially on hard difficulty and it is just such an amazing looking game. It's honestly a really good game.

Love that shot of the moon. It's almost the right size!

I also love that you're still offering video downloads, since I feel the YouTube encodes don't do this game justice.

We played it all the time in college and some people got VERY competitive. One would grab for sets claws-out, and spent all her free time studying it to get faster.

But this doesn't take place in Boston though, the skyline doesn't match.

No one left uncured.
I got you.
Aw hell yiss I finally noticed one of these before it was months in.

I kinda sorta ruined this game by attempting the highest difficulty. It's not very well balanced, it turns out. Fortunately, every playstyle other than the mindless trophy-grabbing one (believe me, there are some head-scratchers (and some good ones, don't worry)) results in the game being hella fun.

Honestly, if Uncharted scrapped difficulty modes and weird trophies and embraced adaptive challenge like Crash Bandicoot did it could've been even better than it is.

Why can't I just unilaterally praise video games

This game was really fun! It's my favourite in the Uncharted series. I've got a couple of issues with how it presents some things, but the strength of the game kind of outweighs a lot of that. I normally miss the start of these threads, so I'm looking forward to being joining in on the ride.
