Now imagine the scale, but 10x smaller at launch.

naruga2532d ago (Edited 2532d ago )

ambitious as Fk ....not one a chance they ill release such a gigantic game (with no problems in it)....just wait smthing like Watch DOgs 2 with a monkey protagonist this time

ULTp0ltergeist2531d ago

One X will handle it quite well, probably by then PS5.

freshslicepizza2530d ago

In other words the game we all wanted from No Mans Sky but never got. Looks impressive.

Gazondaily2532d ago

Bro even at 10x smaller ....that engine is INSANE!!!

No way the final product will be like this. I will be shocked

Erik73572532d ago

Might not even be out this generation seeing that there were no platforms announced for it...

RememberThe3572531d ago

@erik, my thoughts exactly. There isn't a game the exists right now, in any state, that I want to play more than this. But I'm imagining this game will take some time, Im expecting a dense world at a scale and detail we haven't seen before.

syphon322531d ago

hmmm.. that looked like an xbox controller he was playing with..

Sam Fisher2532d ago

Lmfao i read that comment with the shamwow guy 😂

Godmars2902532d ago (Edited 2532d ago )

Sadly, that is how things tend to go.

Edit:
Though in this case, hope this is an exception.

So big wait 12 months folks 😑

bloop2531d ago

12 months?? Ha!!! More like 12 years!!!
By what he just showed and talked about, there's no way anything will be able to run a game like that, seamlessly travelling through solar systems, heavily populated planets with unique events happening all the time and also having structured missions and story. I'll eat my underpants if the final game releases in the next 5 years and delivers on everything he just showed and claimed what will be in the final product. I think this is a bit over ambitious.

Outside_ofthe_Box2532d ago

I thought they didn't start development yet?

Gazondaily2532d ago (Edited 2532d ago )

They have. I hope this doesn't take an age in development.

That scale!

Outside_ofthe_Box2532d ago

Yeah the scale is huge. Kinda of surprised that they can pull this off on current consoles or at least they're attempting to. Wouldn't be surprise if this gets moved on to next gen. Reminds me of Star Citizen.

-Gespenst-2532d ago

I'll admit that this looks pretty cool, but how long is it going to take to develop? Are we going to be waiting another 14 years? And in that time will this vision for the game be scrapped like the last one?

Also, how close to the final game is this? Will they really be able to pull this off? I won't be surprised if they run into serious problems during development that force them to downsize the game.

In a way though, I'm kind of glad that they have a lot more work to do, because it means they have plenty of time to change the edginess of the game and make it more like the original game tonally.

_-EDMIX-_2532d ago

Well I'm not really sure especially since I don't even know how long they might have been working on this game.

I mean looking at the footage it's clear they have a significant amount done in regards to concept.

-Gespenst-2532d ago

But remember how far along the original BG&E2 seemed - that Jade gameplay video.

If it is far along in development, they should just call it something else and remove all the BG&E references from it or something. At least make it only spiritually related or something. This game really isn't like the original at all by the looks of things.

Null19802532d ago

Yea, they have some really refined assets. But as far as bringing it together as a game, who knows how long? They didn't showcase any city street level stuff. At least they're acknowledging it's a "prototype" and not promising anything as final product.

I understand the hesitation to trust Ubisoft to deliver. I want to believe in this game. Dammit. I want to believe. Comeon Ubisoft, let's do this.

I'm willing to wait for this one if they can deliver.

ApocalypseShadow2532d ago (Edited 2532d ago )

The tech in there looks great. Kind of what I wanted in no man's sky. Exploring but having actual places to go. People and cities to see.

Truth be known though, I would have liked to have continued the adventures of Jade and Pey'j. Can't have everything I guess after 15 years. Maybe we'll see a young Pey'j and Jade's mom and dad. And something happens leading to Pey'j looking after Jade when she's born and they lived together until we saw them in the original BG&E. Who knows.

NotanotherReboot2532d ago

yeah i hope there's story elements from the first game in here. I think showing a pig dude and what appears to be a relative of jade's in the teaser, is indication that there will be a connection plot wise

UCForce2532d ago

It's a prequel. Take place before the original game.

NotanotherReboot2532d ago

I know, but there can still be a connection,as in showing us Jade's parents in their prime, as well as a young Pey'j and how he became close to Jade's family before her birth

Neil Druckmann clarifies true intent of new Naughty Dog game comments

Following a recent interview with Sony, Naughty Dog head Neil Druckmann claims the original intent was “unfortunately lost” in the process.

just_looken3d ago

He can take dog shit put it in a oven with seasoning then call it waistland cookies the sony fans will pay $40 a cookie give them a medal of cooking.

No mater what trash this sobs puts out/talks about it will sell.

The true fact in the 8 years sense uncharted 4 his first time in the main seat to a point all this "amazing" team did was get 2 dudes to fuck in a van then destroy a franchise they never created.

But being a port studio they are decent at they should keep in there lane at being just that a glorified port studio.

fr0sty3d ago

Salty Bots... gotta love it.

just_looken3d ago

@frosty

Over what? naught dog under his command is a glorified port team tlou2 was mostly tlou 1 asset's with the same game play loop but forced a trans down your throat.

I would gladly help pay for this blight and his team to get removed from gaming in general.

fr0sty2d ago

Seeing a LGBT person exist in a work of fiction isn't "forcing them down your throat". Nobody is forcing you to play it. Nobody is forcing you to agree with it. If you think that just seeing a LGBT person exist is "force", it sounds like they make you very uncomfortable, and maybe you need to be doing some serious reflecting on exactly why... looks to me like you're suppressing something with all that fear.

just_looken2d ago

@fro

When i think of the last of us i think of a group of survivors crossing the apocalypse wasteland with a growing bond between 2 people that end up with Joel making ellie his new daughter.

Then you fire up the 2nd one bang joel is dead oh that comic series? bang dead

Oh you want to continue all that we grew in the first one? na f that toss it in the trash

Now here is a trans woman so strong superboy would blush go out there kill all what made tlou1 then halfway get a forced sex scene that you can not skip between 2 dudes.

The gameplay? just like the first game the combat/backpack system crafting sytem? 0 changes/improvements.

I could go on but lets face it they copy pasted that tlou 1 assets bin a shit ton of times.

There is nothing on the box or the ads or anything before the game that said you would going to spend most of the game controlling a new trans character that has no ties to anything of the first game the only existence was to kill what the first game made.

Oh but hey there is a mp mode coming out before 2022 wait what is that? oh we made it its own game then cancelled it now go but the game again as we port it a few times.

mkis0072d ago (Edited 2d ago )

What has Straley or Henig released since they left ND? Not a thing! stop scapegoating! Which of them is credited with co-writing a majorly successful show?

just_looken2d ago

@mkis007

You bring up Bruce Straley really? someone that gave us 4 generations of amazing games and was there in the creation of 4 legendary franchises but was tossed in the trash for the pos niel druckmann not 7? years ago

So yeah in those 7? years you right all he has done is get 2 awards one is a game award for a puzzle game he made oh boy right like for fuck sake's all niel has done is one game that was a overhyped fan boy orgasm underneath all that ps jizz was just a typical 5/10 game.

Then you drag Amy Hennig that poor woman was also kicked out then became this century's Brendan Fraser with her sexual misconduct information coming out.

We all know how horrible people are treated behind the scenes she might have been sexual attacked groped or something.

So yeah all she did after was battlefield hardline forspoken now that new marvel 1945 game but hey Brendan Fraser was a great actor till he also said he was sexually attacked just now he is allowed back in no doubt she also had to take a leave of absence out and or was forced out on ice.

Man there are way to many out there that look at niel at the new gaming jesus when all he had done is some work on uncharted 4 then tlou2

Oh also the tvhshow? for real all they did was use stuff from the 2013 game its like saying GOT was a 10/10 but never watching past season 3

-Foxtrot2d ago

@mkis007

That's highly unfair to them both

Amy Hennig got messed around working on projects that got cancelled by the publishers (EA) and then ended up on a awful game (Forspoken) where you had 4 other writers working on it which is just a recipe for disaster. She is now working on Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra. Not her fault she was pushed out of NaughtyDog, something both Nolan North and Richard McGonagle have both said in interviews.

Bruce Straley left after burn out, the rest of the story we don't know and will never know just like what happened with Amy Hennig. He decided to take a break and wasn't sure if he wanted to come back to gaming however he had an idea he wanted to make so he founded Wildflower Interactive, a smaller studio where they are currently working on a new game.

Tacoboto2d ago

@the obvious stain of a commenter

The trans character wasn't Abby. Try playing Part 2 instead of gatekeeping what you think Part 1 was about and meant.

Maybe try watching the show while you're at it, because you're terribly off with your opinion on that too

MajorLazer2d ago

Naughty Dog is better than all the MS studios put together.

derek2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@just he has been behind 2 of the greatest games ever made. Tlou2 was easily the best non-vr game made last gen. Losers just can't get over Joel's death, mixed with the usual console war nonsense. The fact that you so casually call him a sob shows how deranged some gamers have become about Drunkmann.

derek2d ago

@frosty, for people like Just, including anyone that can be categorized as being a minority in any kind of media is "forcing it down his throat " lol. I to don't care for poor "checking box" inclusion for inclusion sake but that was not the case with tlou2.

fr0sty2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

The pathetic part about it is, you can tell just_looken never even played TLOU, because that was the game where Ellie's sexuality was first brought to light... No "that was forced down our throats" to be said about that.

Only terrified folks in the closet that use their hatred as cover from outing themselves fear LGBT people that much. They exist. They will exist in all aspects of life, including popular media. Get over it.

just_looken2d ago

@all

Once again you drag out something like its a big win

Here is my old channel a clip of me playing TLOU on ps3
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Search my channel for more clips

Proof its my channel? look at this profiles banner that is 7yrs old then look at other vids on that channel like my bf3 clips to see my psn id. But knowing this group that is way to much work.

Also elle being a lesbian is another trump card? one dlc is all we got of that a dlc that took over a year to be tossed out.

Glad he clarified it but i'm still somewhat skeptical. Plus, his comments about how Ai will revolutionize storytelling were still pretty iffy.

anast3d ago

No need to bow down, Stan your ground. The AI comments were gross though.

S2Killinit3d ago

Pretty excited as I read these. I just cant wait to see what ND is up to.

Export3d ago

put a chick in it and make her gay !

shadowknight2033d ago

Next they need a diverse couple, and perhaps some climate activists

I would love that if only to piss off all the lunatics. Lol

It will be something like "we erased gameplay all together it's just a movie now"

purple1014d ago

every time naughty dog make a game, you play it and get the feeling "this is not possible'

from the boulder running towards you in crash, on ps1,
to the massive open world of jak and daxter, on ps2,
to the QuickTime events sequences of uncharted on ps3/4

and now we will see what they do with ps5,

Press X for doubt at "PS5"

-Foxtrot4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Arrogant asshole who sniffs his own farts bigs up next game…sounds like typical PR to me

You know what I find interesting? Almost every site reporting this as the main title where the REAL interesting bit of the interview is Neil praising AI and saying it will be used to help push story, characters, dialogue and more.

It’s super shitty to big up AI especially when it comes to story telling and other creative elements.

senorfartcushion4d ago

Just because someone says this type of stuff, it doesn't mean that it's guaranteed to be good news.

You can say this about microtransactions. MXTs revolutionised the gaming industry.

Einhander19724d ago

He also said it has "ethical issues we need to address" but of course that doesn't get the clicks.

CrimsonWing694d ago

I’m all for it. Cuts the time to make a game. Look, Hellblade 2 took 5 years to make, if AI can do that in half the time, as a consumer, I support it.
