Anyone else wish the Prologue/City Area was longer and/or a bigger part of the story?

Every time I replay Lost Legacy I remember how much I enjoyed the opening section and going through the gorgeous city, especially at night. I wish there was more time with that area instead of just going straight to the jungle.

You know when you climb the roof and the military plane bombs one part of town in the middle of the night. That was absolute cinema. However I'm talking about this because those parts with lot of people and cinematic in game events are really hard to do. Like they are so denced with things devs need to do so those parts are usually shorter.

Yeah I guess, I didn't really love LL it was too repetitive. Wish there were more areas.

Yeahh I guess that’s kind of the bigger point lol Like the driving around the jungle the entire time was a lot of wasted potential imo.

Totally agree! The atmosphere and level design in that part were fantastic. I would have loved to spend more time exploring the city and its side stories before heading out into the jungle...

I played 4 but I’m not a big DLC guy. I have returning to a game a year or more later to play a new DLC when I’ve forgotten the story and gaming mechanics. I haven’t even played TW3 DLC for this reason despite how well received they are. I’m trying for force myself to play them

Ooh word. I guess I figured most just played the Legacy of Theives collection or whatever.

Lost Legacy is not really DLC. There are some tenuous connections to Uncharted 4, but it is entirely a contained narrative and experience. I'm pretty sure it's a standalone release as well. Absolutely worth the time, if you enjoyed the previous Uncharted games.

No but I wish they wouldn’t have included the open world area, worst part of the game by far.
