Nate and Elena Reunite (Uncharted 4)
The relationship between Nate and Elena has been built up across three entire games, and the two finally seal the deal and get married at the end of Uncharted 3. However, we see that married life isn’t all sunshine and roses in Uncharted 4, as Nate grows tired of his mundane life and starts cutting Elena off when Sam reappears.
One of the most heartbreaking scenes occurs when Elena finally tracks Nate down and confronts him about his lies. She leaves, but returns again when he needs her the most. As they reunite and continue to mercilessly slaughter a bunch of mercenaries like the good ol’ days of courtship, things get serious again when Nate asks Elena why she changed her mind and came back for him. She reminds him of their marriage vows, and that she promised to stick with him for better or worse. It’s a great conversation that’s completely missable in the game, but it’s an important one that encapsulates how Elena feels about Nate and how far she’s willing to go for him, even when he’s being unbelievably selfish.
