You'd think if you didn't get hit and did perfect parries, you'd get a different line like, "who, by the way, is a much better fencer than i thought."

I love his way of words

Just play skull face’s game for now. one wrong move and l’ll be dead.

hi, would you accept a cash offer in exchange for a ps4 game? (driveclub) I'm not crazy, the game is simply not accessible anymore and I was wondering if you could do me this favor ;)

Rafe: I’m afraid not, Your men have been… detained.

(Is covered in seeping wounds from the saber Nate kept hitting him with) "Lol u can't fence for shit"

Idk why i was laughing at this Rafe-You know how to sword fight Nate- yeah stick yoy with the sharp end right Rafe- oh this should be fun

I wish there would’ve been special dialogue to the fact he didn’t hit him😂. He says Nate can’t win, and yet he hasn’t struck a single blow!

rafe's last words: "i earned this...all of it"

Have to admit.. this is the most difficult boss fight i've had in the whole series, crushing mode requires slow motion cause i cant keep up with the regular speed on this one. 😂

man ND made such an epic final fight and we didn't knew they would do it again with tlou2

do the challenge in crushing difficulty if you dare

One of the greatest villain monologues ever in a game

Naughty Dog really know how to use 100% power of PS4’s hardcore

Crushed under the weight of his own greed. Could have just left the Drake brothers flee and had the treasure to himself. But just knowing they’d be alive and thinking he’d have to change the glory of the find made it impossible for him. Great villain.

When you see the chapter, A Thief's End Me: It's the end of awesome adventures (Sad noises)

You have to do mikiri

Happy 8th anniversary to Uncharted 4. This is still one of the greatest boss fights in the Uncharted trilogy

That spin attack screws me over every single time

this fight is like Thomas vs avery

You've done perfect.

The thing that I love so much about this sword fight is that it isn't just a regular sword fight, but rather it's also a great moment that showcases Nathan's skill. How so? Especially since he often wildly overswings with some of his slashes (2:29)? Well, let's analyse the whole fight. Now, I do not do Fencing. Just, just saying it now and here. But I've watched a lot of videos of Fencing tournaments, seen a lot of duels (from movies like Tintin), and even watched some tutorials on the fundamentals of Fencing. Firstly, let's discuss Nate's base skill excluding Fencing. Nate is a skilled fighter, as he executes and displays his martial art influence very well. His hooks, crosses, jabs, upper-cuts to the gut or sometimes even the jaw, as well as his brutal haymakers and the way he keeps his hand tucked by his cheek at times all signify a Boxing-like influence. His reverse/vertical/12-6/horizontal elbow strikes, knee strikes, back-fists, hammer-fists and quick round-house kicks delivered to the gut all signify a Karate-influence. His drop-kicks, double-axe handles, spears, sucker-punches, head-butts, guillotines and scarf holds all signify a Pro Wrestling-influence. His side-kicks delivered to the face, jump push kicks, and round-houses delivered to the face all signify a Taekwondo-influence. His ippon seoi nage's, kotegaeshi's, triangle choke-holds, rear-naked choke holds and tomoe nage's all signify a Jiu-Jitsu-influence. His arm-breaking disarms signify a Krav Maga influence, and that covers his fighting styles besides Combat Shooting. But now, what about Fencing? Let's analyse the fight: At a strong glance, you may be rather mixed with Nate's approach of Fencing. If you're a Fencer, then this may weird you out a bit, but if you look closer, the pieces come together. Let's look at the start of the fight (here: 1:31). For those who don't know, the term "En Garde" is the name of the stance you place yourself into before you start Fencing, and is one of the 3 fundamentals of Fencing. The stance is simple, if you're right-handed then you place your right foot in front and it faces forward while your left foot remains back and faces to the right. If you're left handed, then do the exact opposite. Although you can't see Nate's stance here: 1:34, I went into photo mode and discovered that his feet are in the correct position, exactly like how Rafe is doing there. However one thing that Nate and Rafe get so correct is that their knees are bent. In Fencing, you want your knees to be bent to the point where you can't see your feet, and Nate and Rafe are doing just that. It provides more mobility, and can be used to help travel faster. It also helps for fundamental No. 2; Advance and Retreat. However this is the only fundamental Nate and Rafe fall in lukewarm territory in-terms of accuracy. For instance here: 2:03. In Fencing, you Advance with whatever foot is your predominant one, and then bring your other foot forward. Rafe does the opposite here. However Nate is no better as he does the same thing. But they don't full completely flat. Rafe and Nate use this stance to full effect with their Lunges (2:19/3:14), which is the third and final fundamental of Fencing. How you're going to Lunge. When you Advance, you must step first with your heel, and Rafe and Nate do just that when they Lunge at each other. For those who don't know, a Lunge is when you try stabbing them by extending your sword outward rather than swinging at them. So Nate and Rafe are actually rather accurate with the fundamentals of Fencing. But how are their sparring techniques? Let's start with Rafe. Rafe is very clearly advanced in sparring with a sword, to the point where he actually expands far from just Fencing, and into HEMA sword categories. With the way he grapples Nate (2:34/2:59), redirects his movement (2:34/2:44) and even his ways of disarming Nate (2:13/2:34) all echo strong HEMA influence. It also explains his sparring outside of his grappling techniques, like the way he swings (3:24-3:35), it's a far-cry from Fencing where you only resort to Lunging. However, although it's not incredibly stylistically accurate to Fencing, it still gets the job done remarkably well. In fact the fact that Rafe uses both HEMA and Fencing and manages to use one over the other extremely well and transition each of their moves well enough, may be the explanation for why he's not 100% accurate to the Fencing fundamentals in the first place. Because he does more than just Fence. He even becomes more accurate to HEMA and Fencing as the fight progresses on and he becomes more aggressive. So that's really cool to see. Now we discuss Nate, and there's a lot worth discussing here. Firstly, we've already discovered that he and Rafe use Fencing, and the points I made for Rafe in-terms of Fencing also apply here, with the way Nate transitions from stance to stance and move to move. But something worth noting, is how Nate swings. Nate is... a weird case. There are moments where he's rather unprofessional (2:27/1:54), but there are also moments handled with decent-enough refinement that spark him into the professional category (3:35-3:38). Not only with how successful and well-executed some of his swings are, but also his techniques with grappling. He seems to rather gaining distance more than disarming, unlike Rafe. Which is actually one thing that martial artists like; distance. Specifically with moments like this: 3:17, or: 3:53, and/or: 3:31 . There are also a lot more examples that aren't present in this video, like how sometimes whenever Nate gets cut he'll quickly dash behind Rafe and push him away to gain distance, or how whenever he successfully stuns Rafe he'll sometimes dash behind Rafe and elbow his spine. Also right here: 0:26-0:29, the way he quickly crawls away from him due to being disarmed. There's sometimes where he'll quickly parry Rafe's sword and then dash behind him, an example is here: 3:26. Nate sometimes does redirect Rafe's sword to help stun him and restrict his recovery, an example is here: 2:10. Sometimes he'll even smack his sword handle against Rafe's face after successfully parrying one of his attacks. OK, there's also the very obvious one, he parries attacks, which is actually a pretty deadly move, since it not only makes him more diverse but also assists with stunning his enemies if they're similar in skill or better. His professionalism is also reflected with how he often blocks Rafe's attacks. Such as here: 3:24-3:35, he seems very coordinated with his blocks. So with all of that being said, why does he swing like this: 2:27 at times, if he's so damn professional? Well, that's because of his emotions. Note how Rafe constantly screams stuff like: 2:14 and/or: 3:11. Sometimes if you die he'll say stuff like: "I'm a bit disappointed, Nate." that's because Rafe is aware that Nate is holding-back against him. Nate's moreso taking the defensive side of this fight rather than trying to full-on assault Rafe, and Rafe knows this, hence why he taunts him. He's aware that Nate's better than this, and tries bringing it out. Which is why towards the end of the fight, Nate actually seems more accurate to HEMA with how he swings the blade. He doesn't swing like: 1:54 at the end, instead he seems more refined (3:58-4:01). He swings similarly to Rafe, but instead opts to refine more when it gets blocked and transition seamlessly into another attack rather than continuing to attack like Rafe did at times (because he was aware that Nate wasn't going to strike him dead). So that's why I believe Nate not only knows Fencing, but also HEMA. If he actually tries, then he puts up an even better fight against people like Rafe. Hence why the way Rafe blocked attacks went from confident redirects like: 2:28-2:31, to being more worried and prepared once Nate started trying (3:58-4:01, with the way his empty arm starts to wave a lot more and with how he bobs his head since he's actually now frightened). Hence why he also said: 4:04, and hence why he also played possum to pin Nate (4:17). Because he knew right there and then, that he was boned, as Nathan Drake had returned. He did also say: 4:33, but that was moreso monologue than it was merit. I mean, he did literally say: 4:04, once Nate started trying. So, Nathan Drake knows: Boxing Karate Pro Wrestling JuJitsu Taekwondo Krav Maga Fencing HEMA Combat Shooting 9 fighting styles. Holy crap....

THIS is what I hate about this Boss fight: Nate clearly owns Rafe here,yet Rafe still brags like he’s better than Nate.

I like how during the final stretch while Rafe is saying how everything was handed to him you can see that the hand Nathan uses to hold the blade starts to bleed because of the pressure

No hit runs: * exist * Cutscenes: hello Cutscenes that deal visible, physical damage to you but don't take away your health: parry this you fucking casual

The music has the perfect transition

Tom Cruise vs Jake Gyllenhaal

"I have sacrificed everything to find Avery. And I'm not gonna let a couple of two-bit thieves, a senile con man, and a washed-up journalist take that AWAY FROM ME!".

There is two poles of Action Adventure genre Tomb raider and uncharted Both are the king & queen of this genre

Rafe:why have I chosen crushing mode

When I saw the chapter said a thief’s end I was so sad

4:42 Thats One Epic Scene *sWoRdS*

This still isn’t as good as Talbot’s boss fight.

It's over Anakin I am the main character

It would have been cool if their was secret dialogue for beating him perfectly, instead of him saying “he cant fence for shit.” instead say something like, “it took everything i had to win this victory, and i love it, thanks for the fun, mate!”

4:48 that's why I think he's the best villain in the series. He's not just some warlord criminal, he doesn't want the money or fame, he's just a billionaire who desperately needs something in his life that he actually earned rather than givin, and will do what ever it takes to get it.

Putting potc theme on this would make it 50 times better

Old video but could you really fight with 400 year old swords

In my opinion this has to be the greatest Uncharted final boss fight every

True final: Nathan give up and says that revenge is not the way like the last game of the Naughty Dog...

Rafe: *on a goddamn silver platter* the music: *Y E S*

This final fight makes the fight with Ellie and Abby look like an absolute joke

Rafe went down like a loony toon.

This may not be the greatest boss fight in terms of gameplay, but it's one hell of a satisfying ending to the game.
