Today's game is Uncharted 4 again. I got back too it with Chapter 11. This whole chapter is really pretty with it architecture and lighting. Another example of what i mean is the lobby of the clock tower you go to:

This whole section gives me Myst vibes too. I think it's the way the lighting is done, but whatever it is makes, it makes me nostalgic because i had Myst on my old iPhone 1 way back in the day when i was younger.

There was also this screenshot which gave me heavy Assassin's Creed Syndicate Vibes. I think it's because it's a clock tower:

I also tried my hand at an action shot again. The FSR was making the water really fucking sparkly, i don't think it translated to the screenshot, but if you see some sparkles that's what it is:

Finally i wanted to share this shot i took while climbing the tower. I really like how it came out with the contrast between the pillars and city:

I loved the Guybrush Threepwood reference they had in the game. It's off to the side of the image you have there with the portrait paintings if memory serves!

I remember it dawning on me and making me grin. "Is that, oh it so is!"

This whole section gives me Myst vibes too

I can see why!

Damn, i thought this was one of my screenshots for a second and you were pointing out the specific screenshot. The resemblance is uncanny

Outstanding game and one of the few times I’ve seen my native Scotland in a game!

[–] MyNameIsAtticus 1 points 1 month ago

Scotland is one of my favorite sections of the game with how pretty it is. Plus the ruins the game has you climb around in

I played through 1 - 4 and honestly, I think 4 was the only one that was actively good. The others might once have been fun, but they didn't really hold up. However I had a great time with 4. I particularly liked the epilogue.

I liked 4 a lot. It felt like an appropriate end to Drake's story, especially with the more grounded story with supernatural elements out and the new mechanics added. I loved The epilogue on my first play through too. I had to stop and go "woah, is this really a video game?" with the lighting
