Today’s game is some more Uncharted 4. I was playing Scotland and decided to try and do it stealth only. Anyways. That’s loosely related to my point. While I was sneaking around I found out that if your companion is in the way, Nathan will just hop onto their back and climb around them. It makes for some funny imagery.

Anyways, It’s this section here though in Scotland that reminds me of what I love about the game. It’s setup is grounded in reality yet it takes that and gets fantastical with it. And then not only that it allows for a seamless transition from Combat to Puzzle to Combat. It’s really good.

I made it as far as the cave. I could have sworn there was a whale that jumps out of the water here but I couldn’t see it.

Even without the whale though the climb over there is a lot of fun. It makes good use of the grapple mechanics and starts introducing them in advanced ways. Plus the sliding is fun.

This was as far as I could make it though. I entered the room with the water bucket puzzle and was about to crash because of a busy day yesterday. I’d have liked to get more but I’ll take what I’m comfortable handling. Definitely glad I waited thought because I loathe that puzzle ever since trying the achievement to do it in as little moves as possible.
