Those who have played Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection perhaps they do not know it, since in these titles the greatest weight in history is carried by Nathan and Sam Drake, Chloe and Nadine, but in the original trilogy Victor Sullivan, whose nickname is Sully, was a fundamental character and not just Nate’s inseparable companionbut he was also the one who introduced him to this world of adventures and treasure hunters.
Be that as it may, the truth is that despite the fact that Sully lost relevance in the compilation (of which we recommend you read the Uncharted review: Legacy of Thieves Collection by our colleagues from Alalphata), the truth is that It is one of the most beloved characters in the saga.since, despite the weight of the years, gives off a charisma that has rarely been seen in the video game industry.
And it seems that there were those who wanted to get the most out of the character, since recently it has been known that there was a desire to make a game with Sully as the protagonist. However, do not think that this idea came from Naughty Dog. Quite the contrary, since this could have materialized from the hand of Bend Studios, the creators of Days Gone.
Bend Studios could have made an Uncharted with Sully as the protagonist
It must be said that this has been known through the Sacred Symbols + program, in which the director of Days Gone, Jeff Ross, spoke of what happened after Sony did not give the green light to a sequel. Thus, the studio considered developing another Sony IP, with Uncharted being the most discussed.
Thus, Jeff Ross comments that the idea was to have a 25 year old Sully in 1976, this being the time when the character would try to find his way in this world, which led him to Nathan Drake. In fact, he comments that Sully’s image would evoke Sean Connery’s James Bond. However, in contrast, he pointed out that there wouldn’t be so much shootingwhich could clash quite a bit with the rest of the games in the series.
Having said all this, it must be said that the Uncharted saga is not unknown to Bend Studiossince it was in 2011 when the development team released Uncharted Golden Abyss for PlayStation Vitan, this being a title highly praised by critics which ended up being one of the best sellers of the already extinct console.
