About what you\u2019d expect at this point in his treasure-hunting career.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The demo starts off with Drake on an island, and he\u2019s looking for someone. But who? Someone described as tall and lengthy, with \u201ccrazy ideas about pirate treasure.\u201d Not Sully\u2014someone new, someone we haven\u2019t met before. A lot of the focus is on the environment; it reminds of the first Uncharted game. The environment is dark, foreboding, and WET. This being a Naughty Dog game, the developer never shies away from demonstrating its graphical prowess.<\/p>\n<p>And Drake, doing what he does best, leaps, shouts and climbs his way around the environment. That is to say, it\u2019s exactly like the first three games. Not that that\u2019s a bad thing\u2014Uncharted is built around this mechanic, with plenty of action set pieces thrown in to keep things exciting.<\/p>\n<p>There comes a point when Drake reaches the top of a cliff, giving him a terrific vantage point of the island. The draw distance, level of detail and lighting are all impressive. Naughty Dog games have always look great, and Uncharted 4 definitely looks like a next generation title. A little rough at the moment, sure, but definitely a good idea of what the PlayStation 4 is capable of when put in the right hands.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s striking about the demo is the enormity of the location. Once Drake runs into enemies, he begins navigating a multi-level monolith, and the scale is amazing. It really looks like Naughty Dog made an effort to build an environment that players can navigate using different paths. When Drake begins evading the enemies, nearly every surface is climbable, which means not every path will be totally linear. That\u2019s a nice change.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-wrap-1\" class=\"gallery-wrap\">\n<div id=\"gallery-1\" class=\"dark galleryid-633847 gallery-size-thumbnail photo-gallery slider tb-gallery rsHor rsWithThumbs rsWithThumbsHor\">\n<div class=\"rsOverflow\">\n<div class=\"rsContainer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"rsContainer\">\n<p>[metaslider id=773]<\/p>\n<p>New to proceedings is a grappling hook-type tool, which Drake uses to navigate larger gaps; at one point he uses it to propel himself toward an enemy below him. Drake has never been the one to use tools, and I wonder if Naughty Dog will start implementing a system where players can upgrade Drake\u2019s abilities, similar to what we saw in The Last of Us. (That\u2019s just speculation on my part.)<\/p>\n<p>The demo ends, of course, in a patently Uncharted way, while also revealing who Drake was looking for to begin with. (Is that the voice of Troy Baker? Probably.) I\u2019ll let you watch the demo to find out who he is. All in all, a good start for Uncharted 4, though I wonder if we\u2019ll be confined to this island location the whole time, or if Drake will be globe trotting during his newest adventure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/Ow2cL-pp6p8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PLAYSTATION<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naughty Dog graced Sony\u2019s PlayStation Experience with a lengthy demo of Uncharted 4, giving fans their first good look at gameplay.
