rionaleonhart: final fantasy vii remake: aerith looks up, with a smile. (looking ahead)
I've just finished a replay of Uncharted 4! I was a little hesitant about replaying this game, because I have such negative feelings about the 'Nate has a brother' retcon, but in the end I'm glad I did; I had a good time!

Unfortunately, I still hate Sam Drake, so I'm going to divide this post into two sections: grumbling about Sam, and my other thoughts on the game. That way, it's easy to avoid my negative thoughts if you're a big fan of Sam! (And also easy to read my negative thoughts exclusively if you're only here for my complaining, I suppose.)

To start with, here are my Sam-related complaints:

And here are my other notes on the game, which are broadly much more positive!


More positive notes on Uncharted 4! )


When people ask me what pairings I ship without specifying a fandom, Nate and Elena are the first characters to come to mind. I love them, and it’s been great to reacquaint myself with them by replaying this series!
