What We Think

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is a solid example of non-woke, traditional storytelling. Its focus on character-driven adventure and respect for classic tropes make it a breath of fresh air compared to modern, more politically-charged media.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception sticks to classic adventure storytelling. Character traits are defined by personality, wit, and skill, identity factors simply aren't the focus. No forced representation or unbalanced character treatment here. It’s refreshingly merit-based and avoids sacrificing story for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The story largely respects traditional heroism, family ties, and classic male friendship dynamics. Masculinity is shown as layered, sometimes flawed, but certainly not mocked. There is no agenda to subvert religious or cultural traditions in any heavy-handed way.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews aren’t demonized, and there’s no sign of ideological echo chambers. Characters exhibit a diverse range of motivations and moral perspectives without anyone being reduced to a caricature. It’s adventure first, ideology last.
