In and interview with CVG, Uncharted: Among Thieves game director, Bruce Straley, said that it is Nathan Drake's human qualities as a videogame character that sets him apart from the rest of the pack.

"We worked hard to make Nathan Drake feel like a real person, and as grounded a hero as we've yet seen in video games, " said Straley. "He's not your typical video game hero, destroying 50 foot aliens in his armored space suit."

"He's a real dude existing somewhere on this planet right now, dealing with the people he's surrounded himself by, and the situations he finds himself in."
