** When he begins ranting about how historical tyrants like UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler, UsefulNotes/JosefStalin, UsefulNotes/GenghisKhan and [[UsefulNotes/{{Cambodia}} Pol Pot]] were "great men", you know that Drake is in for some serious trouble. Case in point: at the end of the game, Lazarević finds the Cintamani Stone--actually resin in a gigantic primordial Tree of Life--and drinks it, [[ImplacableMan making him virtually invincible against gunshots]] during his FinalBoss fight between him and Drake. Considering the amount of violence that this man is said to have caused in the past, along with his aforementioned comments about Hilter, Pol Pot, Stalin and Genghis Khan, it's strongly implied that Lazarević was essentially going to use his newfound abilities ''[[TakeOverTheWorld to achieve world domination]]'', making him probably the greatest threat that Drake has faced in the series.

* An understated one, but the Spike trap, in which Chloe and Nate scramble around as the ceiling comes closer, only for both of them to drop their snark if you aren't quick enough to solve the puzzle, with Chloe screaming "OH GOD DO SOME-" before hearing both her and Nate's screams cut off by a disgusting ''SQUISH''!

Added DiffLines:

* The end of the train level where Nate gets shot in the gut can be rather intense, mainly for being the one time where Harry Flynn truly looks menacing. His TranquilFury as he closes in for the kill quickly turns into full-blown rage as Nate retreats, all while showing ''none'' of his usual charm and ease.
-->'''Flynn:''' You just don't know when to quit, do you? What, no witty remark? Nothing clever to say?!

* The game's BigBad, Zoran Lazarević, is pretty frightening on so many levels. He's a power-hungry, ruthless, [[SociopathicSoldier sociopathic Serbian war criminal]] who was responsible for killing and torture on a mass scale.
** His EstablishingCharacterMoment ''alone'' should tell you something about him: when he finds out that one of his own men was caught stealing a trinket from his camp, Lazarević's response is to knife the poor guy and toss his body off into the swamp, whilst angrily [[EvilIsHammy hamming it up]] about how he's "surrounded by traitors and fools". The fact that [[BadBoss he willfully puts his soldiers in danger and doesn't have a care in the world about their well-being]] is shows just how heartlessly evil and ungodly scary he is.
