Sorry Alan, I think you chose poorly.
I'm curious as to how he would've been portrayed. But, considering we got a great addition to the crew in Sam; and the best villain in the series with Rafe, I'm perfectly fine with Druckmann and Straley's Uncharted 4.
Based on the teaser VO it seems like Sam was originally?the antagonist which in the game is Rafe and a "good bro Sam" character was a new addition among the changes they made
To be fair; I doubt if it was a big 'choice'. To me it sounds like that he put in his time and is glad that he did, but because of the changes his contract was nullified. They could have asked him to renew the deal; or maybe he already had jobs lining up so he could easily 'jump ship' now. Basically, he got paid, he went through new experiences, and he could walk away without any consequences.
Can anyone think which character Alan Tudyk could have played? Seems like his character got cut completely....
"Weird changes" turned out to be what I've only heard described as "the best uncharted story yet".

I think we got the better Uncharted 4 out of the change.
Some gritty vengeance sibling story is not the tone of Uncharted at all, and I kinda feel it was clear in 3 that Hennig no longer knew how to "Unchart" very well. This was always gonna be the final game, and it would have been very weird to end on another "Isn't Drake a piece of shit!" note.
Also unless the original Sam was a complete asshole from the beginning it would have been completely out of character for Nate to leave him "rotting in this hellhole for 15 years" The origin story between the brothers would have to be completely different, or they would leave a plothole.

Is that for sure a thing that's coming?Sam isn't my favourite but he could have been A LOT worse than he is. I think he's fine and a great way to.justify the single player DLC
I dunno, could've been neat, and would've been a far more believable reason to've not mentioned a sibling other than"I thought he was dead it's painful to speak about."

Lol at weird. What was so weird about the best Uncharted story yet?
Uncharted 4 isn't dark, but matured.
The story in Uncharted 4 doesn't make much sense the more you think about it. The actions of the characters aren't well justified, things just happen and are automatically solved because they had to.Sam is a good example, he lies to Nate in the beginning, he screws him over in the end and then it's just... "happy ending!". He adds nothing to Drake's character. Even the villain in Uncharted 3 (Marlowe) had more depth than that.
It's much like Game of Thrones season 6. It's great and you love watching it, but you can help but know the original creator has a much better of understanding of the characters.
Hollywood actors probably aren't used to an entire story being trashed and started over from scratch in the middle of a project. You don't do that during filming of a movie, but its pretty common in game development. Probably why they considered it weird.
Sam shows just how much Nate has changed. He's what Nate was in the previous games. The guy that's out to get treasure above all else. No matter who he has to hurt or lie to to get to that end goal. So you get a "happy ending" because how can Nate be mad at him when that's who he was?
I wonder what these changes were...
There's talk about how cliche the portrayal in that teaser seemingly is, but I did feel it was a bit odd how relatively well adjusted Sam was in UC4 after being trapped where he was for 15 years, and the circumstances that got him there. There was little there in terms of contempt, in terms of feeling vengeful, in terms of feeling betrayed. I don't think it would have been out of place.
You're confusing me. You just said there was little of this, yet him being an evil brother wouldn't have been out of place? And wasn't heout of prison for two years and roaming the world with Rafe prior to meeting up with Nate?

Derived from that teaser, I could easily see Nathan going "I tried to find you; I searched everywhere" exactly like he does in the game, but instead of Sam being understanding like he is, he would go, "Bullshit, you've lead your comfortable, free life; completely forgetting about me and everything I did for you."
There was a moment in UC4 where Sam was reminiscing about how it was in prison, where Nathan goes "Sam..." and Sam reassures him that he's not blaming him for what happened. I could see something like that easily being twisted based on how Sam internalized his time there.
would i have preferred sam as childhood friend/partner turned enemy/villain to sam as asshole bro? yes, i would've. sam's like a cross between a millstone & an albatross around the neck of uncharted 4 ...
