Uncharted 4 Director On The Games that Impressed Him at E3: The Last Guardian, Cuphead and Morpheus

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is definitely one of the most impressive games at E3, with the new Jeep-powered demo making the rounds, but what impressed those at the helm of the game among the enormous bulk of games introduced at E3? Director Neil Druckmann spoke out.

Just like last year's ori reveal what drew me to cuphead is the art style. It looks beautiful and im pretty sure the final product will hit it out of the park like ori did this year. Coming out of E3 the title that amped me up was Horizon. The artwork looked amazing and the gameplay follows what many had hoped for when they saw the leaked artwork a while back.

Genuine-User3274d ago

Cuphead looks absolutely fantastic. The devs nailed the 1930's cartoon style.

mikeslemonade3274d ago

Coming from a person in the best devlopment team in the world. Please stop the hate on TLG. It will be a great game.

hamburgerhill3274d ago

Wrong! The last guardian is more than a game after what I saw this E3! A better way to describe it would be an "experience of a lifetime!" Hopefully it's compatible with Morpheus just to experience it from within.

No Man's Sky is mindblowing. I'm not sure what the extent of the gameplay is yet, but just the fake that everyone on earth could play their entire lives and we'd still not be close to seeing everything is just crazy. Quintillions of stars, all potentially or likely with planets, all planets with different life forms. Even if the gameplay was just walking around, it's still unfathomable how you create a game world about the size of the known universe.

Dreams again, I don't know if I'd be big on the gameplay, but for whoever is into the creation genre, Dreams looks great.

Star Wars: Battlefront looks like you're inside the movie. The only downsides I saw were all the HUD items on screen. It definitely took away from the immersion. If there's an option to remove HUD items, that's going to feel like playing a Star Wars movie. Also, I'm hoping the scenes actually last a bit. I have a feeling they're going to be awesome set pieces, but very short.. we'll see on that.

Ratchet & Clank looks like a Pixar movie.

So many to mention. I haven't formed an opinion on Guerilla's new game yet. It looks great graphically. I need to see more gameplay.

One's on top of my list for my personal interests are Uncharted 1-3 remastered, Uncharted 4, Metal Gear Solid V, Ratchet & Clank.. maybe that's it for now on what I think are going to be solid buys. The rest look great, but I need to see more or they're not quite my personal preference.

I'm hoping The Last Guardian stands up to Shadow of the Colossus, but I'm not thinking so at the moment. I posted my opinions on TLG yesterday:

Really. Not impressed with hololens. Come on man. You gotta admit that was cool.

DragonDDark3273d ago

You can do that with the PSP. just make the PSP's Screen sunglasses and you will have it.

Dan_scruggs3273d ago

Oh really so you can interact with those characters through hand gestures and voice commands too? I never knew all the things the PSP coundnt do.

Bigpappy3274d ago

I respect that people have been waiting a long time for the Last Guardian, But what they showed look like what they showed when they first mentioned the game for PS3 about 5 E3's ago and the most interesting thing about it was the giant dog with feathers and wings. Not my type of game for sure. Sony's best showing was Horizon, for me. Most of the other stuff they showed is also coming to X1 and their partnering with COD at this point is wasteful in my view, as that game is trending downwards.

DragonDDark3273d ago

Yeah, GRAPHIX! WOW SUCH REAL!

Nirvana315913274d ago

Horizon was the game of the show for me

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_looken9d 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.

fr0sty9d ago

Salty Bots... gotta love it.

just_looken9d 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.

fr0sty9d 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_looken9d 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.

mkis0078d ago (Edited 8d 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_looken8d 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

-Foxtrot8d 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.

Tacoboto8d 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

MajorLazer8d ago

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

derek8d ago (Edited 8d 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.

derek8d 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.

fr0sty8d ago (Edited 8d 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_looken8d 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.

anast9d ago

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

S2Killinit9d ago

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

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

purple10110d 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"

-Foxtrot10d ago (Edited 10d 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.

senorfartcushion10d 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.

Einhander197210d ago

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

CrimsonWing6910d 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.
