Once again this is embarrassing. The real quote is:

is the best DLC/standalone/whatever it is of the year

Game journalists, of course being inept, don't know how to categorize something is solely just a standalone game.

It can't be dlc because it has a physical release and isnt tied to another game's ownership.

It can't be an expansion... because it isnt tied to another game's ownership.

Thus there's only one way to categorize it, its a sequel. And being a sequel to uncharted 4 that would make it uncharted 5.

Good job ignoring all of the other links provided, including the developers themselves telling you that it isn't Uncharted 5

The only one embarrassing themselves is you.

It's a stand alone expansion, read the links you were given instead of showing off how much of a failure you are.

A game cannot be stand-alone AND an expansion. Those are opposites. An expansion relies on a base game to EXPAND upon. If it's standalone its not an expansion by definition.

Yes a game CAN BE a standalone expansion, just means it not as large as full title but can be played without a base product it just usually sold cheaper than a standalone game.

I say usually but there has been exceptions recently like Tiny Tina's Wonderland which cost more than Boderlands 3, but now I am going off on a tangent.

both ancient gods 1 and ancient gods 2 for doom eternal are standalone expansions

they're expansions and can be played independently of the base game

miles morales is also a standalone expansion

Im sorry you were fooled by a PR team's made up terminology but that's false, those are just half-baked stand alone games sold to you at varrying prices. Bethesda is no stranger to this practice as even death of the outsider was sold 30% cheaper than a full retail game with 50% content of its prequel.

This guy hasn't heard of expandalones before...?
This is like, basic gaming terminology 101..

I knew he was out of touch by referring to Lost Legacy as '5', but I didn't realise it was this far gone and now it's clear he's just trying to argue for the sake of it, perhaps to farm some jester awards?
Motivations unclear, but no-one can be this ignorant on purpose.

no i already did in the post you replied to. An expansion is dependent entity by definition. Thus a "standalone expansion" is a nonsense, that's just called a sequel (or prequel)

It's not what you said.

At this point it's unclear if you're trolling or just outright delusional.

I laid out precise definitions for expansion and stand alone.

expansion: dependent entity, requires base game to play.

stand alone: can be played without owning other products.

There is zero overlap between these as such a "standalone expansion" is a nonsense.

as such a game coming out in the uncharted series which is not dependent on owning another game to play it would be standalone and thus a sequel. I know youre well aware of this because

its also funny you added this line:

since prequels and sequels are not distinct. a sequel can be a prequel, a prequel can be a sequel by same logic and a entry can be both this is true in all media.
