I recently got to the final part of the series of games about the adventures of treasure seeker Nathan Drake. Though I was late for a year and a half, but better late than never! The game left me a ton of impressions and emotions, so I hasten to share them with you.

Start
Uncharted 4 begins directly with adventure. The recognizable style of developers from Naughty Dog instantly draws the player into the vibrant atmosphere of an unforgettable action. After a short introduction, we are directed in the children's years of the main character, in order to show the plot of the game in order.
Nate lives in a children's shelter, his elder brother Sam occasionally visits him. In the next visit of his brother, the guys run away from the shelter. So begins something like learning to play the game. We learn to sneak past the personnel of the orphanage, climb the walls and even run away from the police.
Plot
The game constantly throws us in different periods of Drake's life. After the first chapter about the hero's difficult childhood, we are already getting to the more adult age of the character. In this part of the game, active shootings and escape from the Panamanian prison are started, where Nathan specifically penetrated, in order to find clues in search of treasure. In the process of escape, his brother is shot in the back. Because of the current situation, Natan Drake was forced to abandon his brother to save his life.
Then passes 15 years from these events. Nathan lives with her beloved woman and works as a diver in a search and rescue company. In general, leads an ordinary life. When suddenly his "dead" brother Sam comes to visit him! It turns out that he survived in that shootout and sat all this time in jail. Now he needs the help of his brother to find pirate treasures of Avery to pay his debt to Alcazar - the authoritative Panamanian drug lord. At stake is the life of Sam. Together they go on a dangerous adventure, and they will be helped by old Sally in this difficult business. In their plans, Rafe intervenes, who also long has been looking for a way to treasure, creating a bunch of problems for the main characters.

Gameplay
The gameplay resembles the previous parts of the games, but is upgraded in detail. In the fourth game, we are given the opportunity to pass levels in many ways, at the expense of the big world of the game. The "corridor" of the levels has become wider, correspondingly, and more opportunities. As in past games, there is no map here. It is necessary to focus only on the surrounding world, which further delays the gameplay.
I want to note realistic physics. For example, when you move around on an juniper, you have to carefully choose the route and actually assess your abilities. Jeep does not go to a steep hill, you need to either accelerate, or get out of the car, take a winch and hook on a tree to climb up. And the whole process looks plausible: mud sticks to the tires, flies to the side, the resistance and unevenness of the soil is felt.
The only thing that looks improbable is the moments when the main character uses his ass, rolls down the slope with frenzied speed, flies up and clings to the edge of the rock with his hands. This is certainly unrealistic, but the spirit captures! For this we like adventure action games from a third party.

We can carry only two types of weapons and grenades. But there is also an alternative way to give rivals to rivals - tightly clenched fist to give out biting blows to the head. However, with several enemies at once, such tactics may prove to be a failure.
Graphically, the game looks amazing! From the wonderful landscapes of the local flora dizzy. In some moments, I just left out and looked at the surrounding species. A very bright and vibrant environment is incredibly beautiful. Climbing the tree, we can scare off a flock of birds and they will skyrocket skyward, clouds of mosquitoes circling in separate locations, the wind blows, and sometimes clouds cover the whole sky and a shower begins. Do not convey in words how elegantly and richly Naughty Dog made the world of Uncharted 4.

The final
When you pass such games, I want them not to end! At the end of this game you will find an unrealistically atmospheric and wildly beautiful epilogue. Only for the sake of it is worth to go through the game, if you have not done so yet.
In "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" there are no shortcomings. This game from the beginning to the end keeps in suspense, each time prepares unforeseen events and various levels. Graphics, sound and plot at the highest level. This game will not leave you indifferent and definitely deserves an evaluation of 10 out of 10, I strongly recommend.
Thank you for attention!
