I didn't play them too close together. Don't think it mattered anyway.



Didn't care for the story-line, especially the fantasy aspects. Felt like the monsters in 1 and 2 were lame.

I think the game would have been more enjoyable on a lower difficulty. I played on the hardest one (crushing) and it was more annoying than hard.



Might be
I usualy play story based games on normal difficulty
If i want a challenge i play something else :P

Why is this series so highly regarded?

Repetitive and boring -_-


Partially agree. It wasn't terrible, but a 6/10 series in total. I always felt it was just one of those PS exclusives that people pretended was way better than it was, just because it was an exclusive.

A lot of games have a super hard difficulty that's more annoying than fun. It's like Dark Souls, the game is difficult, but it's just repetitive as fuck and it literally just takes trial and error dying over and over until you get lucky or you figure out the bosses movement pattern. 90% of people praise the game and then lookup every single boss fight and still die 1000x times. Never made any sense to me why people are so obsessed with that game, it's not fun, it's just boring. I haven't played the latest one, I beat the first, played the second for a bit and got bored and I figured #3 would be the same.

when you play 3 games in a row i assume nearly any series would feel that way
and really only uncharted 2 was epic i didnt play 1 n most say it sucked uc 2 was awesome 3 was good but not epic like 2

Mass Effect just was unbelievably repetitive and a shame that I spent as much time as I did to finish em all.

You played them close enough together for them to feel repetive. They came out years from each other.

They were a product of the time and in the zietgiest. Here are a couple reason why the series is well regarded:

When UC1 came out it was the only game of that style in that time. It borrowed thematically from Tomb Raider but we hadn't seen a compentant Tomb Raider in a long time.

Naughty Dog to ramp up production doubled their team.

UC2 was the pinicle of set pieces. They put a lot of pride in the fact that the train sequence was an actual object moving through a scene. That is not something we had seen before in game design. In the past to create the appearance of riding on a train your character would be on a stationary object and the scenery would be moving around you.

Naughty Dog to ramp up production doubled their team again, andnwe now know half the team secretly starts work on The Last of Us.

And lastly, before The Last of Us, UC3 was the one of the best looking games on PS3. Again, they moved forward game design by adding what we all know now as procedural generation. In the desert when you walk along the top of the sand dunes the sand that rolls down the edge is procedurally generated. As well as the waves in the ocean on the cruise ship scene. Another great innovation for game design.

Naughty Dog is considered a master class developer.

Uncharted brought on the renaissance of story telling games.

A competitive based FPS that literally revolutionized the professional gaming industry is only liked because it was an exclusive? You must do a lot of drugs to get that sort of logic. Halo Reach, 4 and 5 have all been incredibly underwhelming, Halo CE was great for it's time and 2/3 were simply amazing overall. I never cared much for the campaign, although it was entertaining, but that's now how i get my enjoyment in FPS games.

Uncharted isn't bad, I just don't get why people hype it up to be like a top 10 game when it's nowhere close.

Played Mass Effects in a row when three came out to establish a second character playthrough. No fatigue on that series. Not all games are made equal.
