comment |
Madness Mantra: Anyone affected by the tainted water inevitably ends up spouting gibberish that at least makes sense to them. This is the clue that something's not at all right with Nate in Chapter 21 of the game: he eventually starts mumbling to himself about "demons of smokeless fire" while fighting hallucinations of the same. |

Villain Team-Up: In Chapter 5 of the co-op campaign, Lazarevic, Flynn and Eddy Raja team up to fight Drake, Cutter and Sully. Not that it helps them any. Cutter, who was only introduced in the third game, is understandably confused and asks who they are. |

comment |
Actor Allusion: Upon entering Ubar with Sully, Nate drops the line "Victor Sullivan, welcome to Ubar." This is a very obvious reference to "Welcome to Dubai, gentlemen," the Signature Line from Spec Ops: The Line. Captain Martin Walker, the character who says it, is also voiced by Nolan North. Both games were developed in an overlapping time frame and heavily feature a city in the desert. |

Thirsty Desert |
| | Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Video Game) / int_3b0bd0ab |
comment |
Thirsty Desert: Part of Drake's Deception takes place in the Rub' al Khalinote literally The Empty Quarter, one of the largest and most inhospitable sand deserts in the world. And Drake has no idea where he's going or where he is, and he has no supplies. The sequence makes very good use of Nothing Is Scarier, as the only thing trying to kill Drake is the unforgiving sun, freezing night and his own increasing desperation-fueled mirages. |

Permanently Missable Content: The relics, but only on your first playthrough. One of them, the Antique Wax Seal Stamp, is found in Chapter 6 near a waterfall. The tricky part here is that there is a one-way drop just a short distance along the path, and the game autosaves after the drop, so if you miss this one and go too far, there is no way to go back and get it. That is, until after you finish the game and unlock the ability to load up any chapter at any time, so you can always go back and get things you missed. |

Chairman of the Brawl: In the prologue, Sully takes out one Mook by breaking a chair over his head. Drake also breaks a barstool over a Giant Mook's head, but it has no effect. |

Optional Stealth |
| | Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Video Game) / int_80580ffe |
comment |
Optional Stealth: There are sequences where you can sneak up and dispatch enemy soldiers, but there are always a few soldiers near the end who cannot be killed without being detected, at which point more soldiers appear. The end result is that being stealthy is rarely worth the difficulty, and can be very frustrating if a player is trying to play through these sequences perfectly, not realizing that it can't be done. It is sometimes possible to use exploits to stealth kill the remaining guards, but this is complicated, requires a lot of luck, and is clearly not the game designers' intention. |

comment |
The vista after climbing to the roof of the dingy pub in the prologue implies it's somewhere in Southwark. Rather than being a rundown neo-Dickensian slum, it's one of the most multicultural, and more importantly most expensive, areas in London. The chances of finding a dive like that, which openly breaks the smoking ban too, are slim. |

Foreshadowing: In chapter 6, Nathan jokes about Sully smoking and warns him to not set the building on fire. In the following chapter, the villains do exactly that in an attempt to kill both the heroes and the spiders that plague the castle. In chapter 11, after activating a mechanism, two images of a brass vessel and a demonic face in fire appear in a wall, representing the vessel containing the Djinn from the story that Salim tells Nathan at the end of Chapter 19. |

Filler: The sub-plot centered around Nate being captured by Rameses' pirates takes up four whole chapters, yet has no connections to the main plot. Drake's main drive is to save Sully, whom Rameses is holding captive, but it's later revealed that the pirate never had Sully and was just bluffing in an attempt to make the hero cooperate. Nate himself lampshades that this entire adventure was a waste of time. |

Random Events Plot |
| | Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Video Game) / int_a07afea2 |
comment |
Random Events Plot: Drake's Deception is the most digressive of the four games and jumps around a lot before reaching its central plot. It starts in London, flashes back to teenage Drake in Cartagena, returns to the present in London, moves to France, then Syria, and then Yemen and an extended section in a Ship Graveyard that digresses from the plot entirely only moving to the finale, the Rub' Al Khali Desert and the City of Ubar in the final few sections. The other games spend far more time in the location of the treasure and MacGuffin with a greater sense of place and mystery. Likewise, the other games had a single Posthumous Character (Drake, Polo, Avery) who inspires Nate to the MacGuffin, whereas this game switches between T. E. Lawrence, John Dee before returning again to Drake. |

Tarot Motifs: Recurrent partly because Marlowe's organization deliberately plays up the symbolism. One journal has three tarot cards pinned inside it: The Tower, The High Priestess, and The Magician. The last two are labelled "Marlowe" and "Talbot" respectively, and the cards are indeed excellent representations of the characters, being an older woman who guards hidden knowledge and a man of mysterious power born of trickery. |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Unlike the previous games, where you are shown exactly what causes the "magical" phenomenon, this game never reveals what is in the vessel that tainted Ubar's water supplies. All the player gets to see is the brass container covered in magic seals, before Drake blows up the crane holding it and it sinks to the bottom of the cavern. It's not even leaking. |

Nothing Is Scarier: Nate gets to wander around the Rub'Al Khali desert, trying to find his way through one of the most inhospitable places in the world. He has no idea where he is in relation to anything else, he can't navigate by the stars because he has no experience doing so, and he has no food or water. There are no enemies to kill. The sequence is frightening for how delusional he gets over the course of three days. |

comment |
Wacky Wayside Tribe: The pirate-infested ship graveyard in the Indian Ocean. Nathan's whole reason for not simply making a quiet escape as soon as he has the chance, is due to believing that the pirates are holding Sully hostage. It turns out, however, that not only is Sully not being held prisoner at the ship graveyard, the pirates had never captured him in the first place. Their leader, Rameses, simply lied to Nathan, basically rendering most of the subplot entirely pointless as there was no real point to Nathan sticking around after getting free. The entire thing could have been excised with no effect on the main plot or character development, not that that stops it from being one hell of a sequence and set piece. |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge: In an uncharacteristically brutal scene for Nate, Sully's apparent death sends him out after Talbot, slaughtering soldiers on his way through Ubar, screaming and swearing to kill them all. Luckily for Nate's sanity, it was all a hallucination. |

Starts Stealthily, Ends Loudly: Enforced. Barring the use of exploits, it isn't possible to finish most of the stealth sequences without being spotted. The airport one is one of the exceptions, and can be done entirely undetected if you have the silenced pistol. |

Historical Villain Upgrade: Queen Elizabeth I apparently sent Sir Francis Drake to the Middle East to find the brass container that tainted Ubar's water so that she could use it to gain power over her enemies. Drake made the wise decision to ditch that mission when he found out what he was after. |

comment |
Whole-Plot Reference: The huge similarities between this game and the third Indiana Jones movie are probably intentional. Plot-wise, both involve the Crusades and a secret hidden in the Middle East. Character-wise, both feature a flashback to the hero's teenage years and an exploration of their relationship with their father/father figure. Even some of the set pieces are the same, such as an escape from a burning castle and a horseback assault on a desert caravan. The climax also features the hero watching his father figure get shot although in Drake's Deception's case, this is a hallucination. |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Nate flies into an Unstoppable Rage when Sully is killed. Luckily, it's just a hallucination and Sully is still alive, because seeing the charming, affable Nate lose his temper like that is terrifying. |

Big Creepy-Crawlies: There are spiders the size of your hand that attack in swarms and can only be repelled with light (and later, a decent amount of shotgun blasts). They show up multiple times throughout the game after Nate finds certain artifacts. One of them is found embalmed in a jar in Marlowe's hideout, implying that they were bred specifically to keep out intruders. |

Spider Swarm: The castles in France and Syria- and the underground chamber in Yemen- are infested with massive swarms of hungry, hissing, gigantic spiders that swarm over Nate and his friends in droves if they can't get out of the way fast enough. Thankfully, Nate can deter them with torches or Sully's shotgun. |

comment |
Mushroom Samba: While under the effects of Talbot's drug, Cutter comments that he sees floors and walls melting. When Drake is injected with the same substance later on, we get to see its effects from his perspective: his perceptions and sense of reality get distorted, with people becoming two-dimensional flat figures as Nate wanders through narrow alleys. Chapter 21 is an extended hallucination sequence where Drake witnesses Sully's death, runs through the streets of Cartagena while being pursued by spiders, is attacked by flaming demons, and sees himself being strangled by his own reflection. |

Cutscene Power to the Max: Played with in a cutscene that was shown at an E3, where Drake headbutts a high-rank mook during his Evil Laugh, disarms him, grabs one of his grenades, throws it at a flammable barrel, then fires two shots at a Mook on the other side of the room, missing by a country mile. Played straight in the game proper where after stealing the mook's gun and grenade he puts a round in the chest of pirate captain with one shot. |
