Overall, a great game to play. I was expecting more than this for a finale though and here is why this game won't be getting a 10/10 for me..
Starting with the story, the number one factor for me, the story had its touching moments where you really feel for drake's choices between his wife and saving his brother. But overall, the story arc here was nothing worthy of "10/10" rating. Just another regular hero going to save his brother from being killed, while looking for a fortune. His wife's character and its involvement added another nice internal conflict in there for drake. But overall they story just followed a textbook line with no intriguing twists. I'm measuring this story to my standard of storytelling excellence ( which I believe I've seen with MGS and Max payane 3). This falls short by few notches.
The other really really irritating and ridiculous pitfall of this game is the repetitiveness of the gameplay . So basically, here's the entire game design concept for you: drive through some gorgeous looking places, get out of the car, shoot some people up, climb a hundred ledges and here and there use your robe to swing around a few places. It got really annoyingly repetitive towards the end.. I would expect more diversity in the levels with each presenting new elements not just the same old same old climb up and shoot people off stuff.
The voice acting was good. Especially Sam's ( the same guy who did Ocelot in MGSV). Really got to the bottom of the character.
8.2/10
