People HATE Uncharted 4's Ending?

This isn't even closely related to ME3's ending. The reason people didn't like the "Red, Blue, and Green Button" ending is because it completely went against the game itself. The culmination of three 50+ hour RPGs shouldn't have ended with you choosing between three cookie-cutter endings. As for the Uncharted Series, they are Action-Adventure games. We have never had a choice in any of the games before. They are supposed to be blockbuster style action flicks with you controlling the main character. BTW The Last of Us ended the same for everyone. You sparing or killing the doctors had no effect on the story. It was just a moral decision that most people didn't really even know they were making.

Is not like Uncharted is popular for its story, is all about the gameplay.

Man, all this talk about how hard it is for an ending to emotionally satisfactory after many hours and many years of dedication to a series started to feel like it was talking about Homestuck's ending next week.

Clickbait title in thumbnail? Surprised it wasn't Funhaus.

Now, I haven't really played the series but it sounds to me like he's going to be seriously injured. People don't like their protagonist dying, but he can't go on these quests if he's in a wheelchair.

It is almost expected that he dies, the game is titled "A Thief's End."

Now, sure, that could mean any number of things. You know, it's the final game, he could be retiring, whatever. But, in the back of you head, you think about it. "He's going to die, isn't he?"

Now, at this point, I almost feel like that ending isn't possible. Something along the lines of

"...there's no way they're just saying it, right? Why do they keep talking? Are they seriously spoiling this?"

It just kind of feels like a ploy to make you buy into the hype, where they pull the rug out from under you. "Oh, nope, he lived. lul. Had you going didn't I?"

Now, where I originally hoped he lived, I kind of want him to die. I've played all the games, and am invested in Drake's journey, but with all this stuff about a controversial ending I'll almost be disappointed if he doesn't go out in some way fitting of a beloved character.

You can only handle someone calling wolf so much.

Naughty Dog has been entertaining me and making my favorite games for basically my whole life. I would be lying if i said I wasn't a little nervous about this. I've hyped this game up so much in my own head that unless it's close to perfection it will kind of be a slight let down. I'm definitely not doubting their ability to make a close to perfect game, but knowing this is the end of Nathan Drake's story adds a whole other level to this

I know they'd be homophones, but I swear Meg is saying "red hairing" instead of red herring...

Maybe the ending is controversial because Drake joins the Brotherhood of Assassins. A connected universe explains the "stolen" concept art. It all makes sense!

SPOILER!!! Nathan Drake ends up working for Nintendo after relieving the hidden truth of 343, the story arc for Metal Gear Solid 6 and 7, and how EA is actually a company that is very good at making a game not suck!!!

less meg please?
