Is Nathan Drake a killer?

Haha... sorry for the weird thread. My friend and I were having this discussion and she brought up the fact that Joel's actions in The Last of Us were perfectly justified. She also said that Nathan Drake is a psychopathic killer. I found her statement pretty ridiculous. Does Drake really kill because he wants to? Is he doing good deeds for the world by taking out very dangerous men? I think by the end of UC3 Drake realizes he loved Elena more than all the treasure he ever wanted. I am curious to see what people think. I said Drake is not a killer because he is not killing any innocent people. She said he is a shithead for throwing that one guy in the Istanbul museum off the ledge(who did not die by the way) Oh and after we had this "discussion" she believes I was silly for not believing her that Joel killed for a reason. By her definition: Nathan is a psychopathic killer, whilst Joel has a reason to do it. I honestly do not think Drake is a killer for various reasons. He gets fired at first. It seems perfectly justifiable to survive for himself. If Drake is a killer(her words) then so are various other characters. http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=9085531 This article is a good read. Lazarevic is an example of a killer who kills in cold blood. He is an example of a terrorist. My friend sees Drake as a psychopath... and it honestly bothers me. Thoughts?

  • Drake isn't a killer; the bad guys are ordered to [i]kill[/i] him. What's he supposed to do? Not kill them because he would be a psychopathic killer? Your friend is a shithead, he wasn't trying to throw him off a roof.
