Fuck I just really loved it. I held it off for a long time, because despite being a huge fan of the franchise, I just really did not see where they would take the series and do something new with it, but boy I was mistaken. First of all, gameplay-wise, i just thought everything worked much better, I usually with the others, got a bit bored of the gameplay, but here it was perfectly diversified to keep it exciting all the way through. Really dug the journal mechanic, thought it was a great way of making you more involved with solving the mystery.
And the ending, honestly caught me by surprise. First of all in regards to there being no supernatural element (as cool as it would have been to fight ghost pirates), I was pretty glad they didn´t go this route again. Even though it worked really well before (especially in the first game where it really caught me off guard, and man those bunker sequences were just terrifying), it just feels like a huge cliché at this point, so I think it was a good call to drop it. More importantly the epilogue hit an emotional point I really didn´t expect to meet in Uncharted, and I really thought it was brave to end it on such a slow and emotional note.
Also, that cave that Avery had was some creepy fucking shit.
