Why do people get mad when you call this guy for what he really is?
>>
>>337626849
BECAUSE THEY'RE SHOOTING FIRST. HOLY SHIT.

What's makes him a mass murderer? Spoil me on this I never plan to play these games.
>>
Because people have been saying it for eight fucking years and the joke has worn thin.

Yes, "haha", Drake kills fuckloads of people and it clashes with his happy go lucky attitude. What a clever observation.

Nathan Drake looks so fucking bad. His face has some weird smooth uncanny valley shit going on. It looks like shit.
>>
>>337627134
He kills bad guys like literally every video game character ever and for some reason people decide to treat it like it's this big psychological thing.
>>
>>337627608
Drake has killed innocent people though

And what distinguishes him is that he only kills people for his own personal gain and not for any greater purpose, he only ever stops the bad guys to save his own skin or get the sooper duper mcguffin for himself

>>337626849
Because Uncharted is one of the few AAA gaming series left that dosen't take itself so fucking seriously.
It was always inspired by globetrotting action/adventure flicks and nothing more. It doesn't try and give social commentary or in-depth character studies.

Pretentious faggots who overanalyize everything to make themselves feel smart need to relocate themselves to the nearest gas chamber.
>>
This was their last uncharted game right?
I just want them to make Jak again. Or sell the license in the chance we'd get something good.

They made a hamfisted attempt at that with Uncharted 4 though. I miss Amy Henning.

He looks like he actually got younger in 4 despite actually being several years older.
It's not a bad model but it's bad artistic direction.

He doesn't have to be there. He could leave, but stays because whatever treasure he's after is more valuable to him than human lives.

Drake is a hetero-normative cis male. I expected better of NaughtyDog after the TLoU DLC did trans-racial homosexual relationships so well.

Not in the 4th.

Throwaway line about everyone at the auction being criminals, which makes murdering the guards who are just doing their jobs fine.
>>
>>337628743
>non-lethal knockouts
Doesn't he snap the necks of the security guards?
>>
>>337626849
Really par for the course for that kind of game, though Uncharted in particular really rests deep in the uncanny valley of murder, largely because of Drake's attitude and the vibe of the games. Not to mention it's not like he's fighting a war or anything, he's just killing people for treasure most of the time.

If he's really a "Psychopathic" mass murderer, he would have killed his friends, wife and daughter, Innocent bystanders in the cities they have visited. He would not spare Nadine Ross, He would abandon Chloe or Cutter. He would not cross the Rub al Khali just to save Sully. Also you don't know jack shit about this game
>>
>>337626849
ludonarrative disonnance is real, as much as it triggers neogaf.

In Doom games you kill demonic creatures
In Metroid games you kill alien animals and space pirates
In WW2 games and war games you kill enemy soldiers

Uncharted has the problem of being a very light hearted action game in which you kill hundreds of people.

It is not good game design to have cut scenes and quick time events like an Indiana Jones videogame, with third person shooter gameplay that reminds you of a Rambo movie.

Ideally the story, cut scenes and gameplay would be coherent.

That's not even the worst part, Sam literally crossed Rafe and was the bad guy. Honestly Rafe should've just shot Sam then and there, they were partners and Rafe really did nothing wrong. Think about it; Drakes stole the statue, Rafe tried to buy it legally. Drakes always attack first from the shadows but it's okay because they're "evil goons", Drakes betrayed Rafe not the other way around. What a fucking shitty game when you start rooting for the 'villain' yet are supposed to feel empathetic for the protagonist

Not to mention the tumblr so special minority woman character whose only role in the whole game was to remind the audience that womyn are stronk too and then she vanished without consequences and without doing anything during the whole game. She might as well have not existed, nothing would've changed. They didn't flesh her out as a character and didn't do anything interesting with her at all

You mean a fictional (not real) character?
>>
>>337626849
sure he's a little sociopathic in his quest for fortune and kills a lot of people while putting his friends lives at stake but the newest game actually addresses that. You see his character arch develop as he starts realizing he's too old for this shit too and doesn't need to be a selfish prick who puts him and his friends lives on the line. he's got nothing to prove to anyone anymore and he has a loving family. Not gonna lie the ending made me feel kind of warm inside. I feel like I actually saw a typical cookie cutter generic action hero realistically grow up for once.

Rafe really the Psychopathic, when Drake in jail with his brother and Rafe. Drake talk about how this is last team up with Rafe because how Psycho he is. Who kill Warden? Rafe did for only 25%. Drake need to stole the status Because Drake doesn't have the money to buy it. by Evil goons" you mean the guy who shoot Drake or anyone oh sight.

The Uncharted series enemies are mostly pirates, mercenaries, and zombies or monsters that have killed innocents. Except in 4, the guards in the auction which are not given any explicit association other than just guards.
>>
>>337630702
I've never really seen ludonarrative disonnance with him though since we already know he's a thief. His moral compass is obviously not balanced so him murdering a bunch of blokes to get his criminal gains isn't really surprising. People are just immature and don't want to admit their Indiana Jones knock off is flawed.
>>
>>337630702
>Uncharted has the problem of being a very light hearted action game in which you kill hundreds of people.
You're literally not supposed to think about it like that though. First of all, they're polygons on a fucking screen, secondly they're the same nameless grunts the populate every single video game and summer blockbuster. I don't remember him ever killing someone that was in anyway significant to the story who didn't start shit first.
>>

This attitude is why Uncharted's writing (and most vidya writing) is garbage. They could've ran with the idea and made Drake an interesting and memorable character by approaching it from a black comedic perspective. Or tweaked the gameplay to be focused more on stealth and using the environment rather than generic TPS. But nope, they set out to make an uninspired Indy+GoW ripoff and they succeeded.

The bad guy in Uncharted 2 calls him on it. Brings up how many people Drake has killed and how Drake is no better than him.
>>
>>337627726
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Drake save the world from facing devastating shit like in 1 (the El Dorado virus) and 2 (a crazed war criminal mad with a super power granting substance)?
>>
>>337638989
Yeah, but Drake proves himself better by not abusing that substance in Shangri-La and stopping Lazarevic from wrecking shit back on Earth.
