It’s only my headcanon, but I like to imagine the supernatural element of Uncharted 4 >!was the pirate treasure. As Nadine points out towards the end of the game, everyone who comes into contact with the treasure becomes obsessed with it, even to the point of killing each for it. Even when everything is falling apart, the heroes and villains continuing fighting each other over gold and trinkets that they can’t even claim, just like Avery and all the founders did back when their pirate colony was first founded!<
You could just as easily say that the narrative is perfectly mundane, but I like the ambiguity of it. It feels like it’s up to the player to decide what kind of story it is.
I mean let’s face it, supernatural monsters requires less of a suspension of disbelief than the fact that the majority of these hidden places that Nate goes to haven’t already been discovered by satellite imaging and other modern mapping technologies.
