Knockback, Episode 284 | Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
🕑 Added 2024-05-22 16:00:14 +0000 UTCIt's been a while since we've covered a game on KnockBack, so we thought we'd return with a bang. Long-requested as a target of our show, The Lost Legacy is a peculiar 2017 release that fits somewhere between an expansion and a full game, and it doesn't star Nate and Sully, but rather Chloe and Nadine, an interesting pairing to be sure. Made quickly by a spin-off Naughty Dog team and received well upon launch on PS4, The Lost Legacy may have represented the most conspicuous gap in my (Colin's) history with PlayStation, but that's no longer the case. Did Dagan and I like the game, though? We did, of course... and we have a ton to say about it. So please join us!

I thought the lenght was perfect for what it was. UC4 was bloated and had serious pacing issues - this is what stopped me from playing Lost Legacy when it released. I was pleasently surprised to see that it was actually handled much better in that regard than the main entry.

One of my few confirmed kills is a deer, doing my part.

So did the mother come back for the fawn or did it rot on the neighbor's lawn as a result of the meddling?

Pleeeease Colin do MGS4 next, we voted for it like 3 years ago at this point.

Lost Legacy is way better than the first game in my eyes. Drake's Fortune can casually be beat in 6-8 hours, just like this game. This game also benefits from all of Naughty Dog's experience since Drake's Fortune. I don't hold high regards to Drake Fortune's globetrotting adventure. You are stuck on an island the whole time. Sure, it gets credit for being the first, and is amazing when considering the year it came out, but I'd much rather play this than Drake's Fortune. However, two, three, and four are a different beast. When compared to them, Lost Legacy is definitely the runner-up.

What about finishing the Pixel Remasters?

Dagan didn't you find it hilarious after the 1st fight with the antagonist where I think Nadine says the glasses made him look not as tough as he is or something along those lines.
Trevor Myers
best in the series imo

Love Dagan's comment on Uncharted as a series saying that it's not especially "deep" or "philosophical" or has some grand political statement but that it's "thoughtful". Everything is crafted meticulously and with care and I thought that was a great description of a series that is often so bombastic but has that very human element throughout.

Me seeing this in my email: YEAH…. YEAH. YEAH. YEAH. YEAH. Had the thought earlier today of like, man, I hope we get Lost Legacy on Knockback sometime this year. So happily surprised we’ve got it this soon.

Colin not having played a Naughty Dog of the last decade? That's wild I didn't realise, looking forward to hearing their thoughts. Would really love to see more games like this from the main PS Studios - smaller projects while still high quality, which can get released quicker

I hate deer. Kill them all.

I liked Lost Legacy a lot more than I expected and the length was just right too. Would be cool to see more games with this duo. Dare I say I’d rather see them again over Nathan Drake.
I like your Chris, I do not like your Chris-chans
Christ almighty. Better late than never I guess.
