8 Upcoming Video Games That Have Already Made Crippling Mistakes

6. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy Is Focusing On The Wrong Characters

The upcoming expansion for Uncharted 4 is essentially a new game in its own right, being released later this year as a standalone piece of DLC, entirely separate from the base experience. It's also the first release without series star Nathan Drake at the helm, as The Lost Legacy is instead putting the focus on series veteran Chloe Frazer and newcomer - as of Uncharted 4 - Nadine Ross.

Unfortunately, in their respective games these characters have come across as somewhat two-dimensional, interesting over short bursts but lacking the pull that the likes of Elena and Drake had in the main series. They're more deserving than, say, Cutter, but it feels odd to have them headline this game while more obvious choices have been ignored like Sully, or even Sam.

There's no doubt that Naughty Dog will be able to flesh them out over the course of Lost Legacy, but for their final outing in the franchise, the developers could have put the focus on characters who've been more integral to the series.
