WELP. I picked up Uncharted 3 from redbox and banged it out in a day. I started on hard which, I guess for normal people like ethe-real-ity it is super easy but OH MY GOD. I wanted to kill myself so I ended up bumping it down to normal. (And then easy. And then very easy. I JUST COULDN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. I was tired of shooting people, I just wanted PLOT

I HAVE NOT PLAYED THIS GAME SO I CAN'T COMMENT ON THE ENTRY BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I READ THAT AS 'I GOT UNCHARTED FROM REDBOX AND BANGED IT' ACCIDENTALLY BEFORE I REALIZED

I...have seen Nathan Drake, so this would not have surprised me?

LOL!

LOL I think maybe we just have different definitions of "without much trouble." I mean, there were definitely parts where I died multiple times, but in Uncharted, that just makes me even more determined to find a way to beat it. I also have several playthroughs of the first two games under my belt. So. *shrugs* And idk, I just remember the final boss from the first game being so fucking hard, and then Lazarevic kept you on your toes, but a little less difficult, and then U3 just didn't have anything, really.

I still suck at MP, though, lol.

I still don't know how true it is that he's a descendant of Drake.I don't think it's at all true, honestly. Actually, that was one of the things I wondered about when pondering what exactly "Drake's Deception" could mean. And wasn't there one part in U3 that blatantly pointed out that he wasn't? Though it might've been something Marlowe said, and, well, she probably isn't the most trustworthy person. XD I really like your idea that he's actually deluded himself into believing it 'cause that's

Lol yeah, maybe. And it's been a few months since I've played, which probably had something to do with it.

Yeah, I mean, honestly I don't think it's true (that he's a descendant). It's just kind of farfetched. I guess what I'm really left wondering isn't if he is or he isn't for real, but what Nate believes to be true. Either way, it's a little heartbreaking. Especially when Young Nate and Sully were in the bar (? restaurant?) and Sully said something about Francis Drake never having any kids and Nate was like "that we know about" or whatever, that FD had kids with mistresses, etc. It's a logical enough assumption to make, especially for a kid who was into history and who was kind of a dreamer. There could be who knows how many descendants of FD out there, who's to say he isn't one? There's not enough evidence to prove him wrong, so there's this sliver of possibility. Idk, it's just kind of sad, which just makes me love him even more x) /rambling

It almost seems like they had some elaborate backstory planned but ran out of time or

[ethe_real_ity]

I could totally see that. It makes me wonder, too, how much Elena actually knows about his past. Based on her interaction with Nate in U3, I'm guessing she still doesn't fully understand what exactly drives Nate into these situations. Or maybe she does and got tired of waiting for Nate to figure it out for himself
