GT:
Every countdown leaves us divided, but these are the games we argue about more than any other, straight from the mouths of those who love and hate them.
who is now the sole leader of Naughty Dog, “I promise you, we will not be ‘The Last of Us’ studio forever.” Numerous games, he said, are in the works, including “multiple single-player projects.
I know he has a celebrity like status but unless he's announcing his game soon idc what he has to say from this point on.
We need announcement something from him.
Kind of a weird interview. No substance, hardly any questions. It's almost like they forgot to post the whole thing or something.
Oh brother...... It's like a balloon filling with helium. He's got nothing new to say. Naughty Dog went from being a studio of numerous developers to being about him and what HE does. Bruce Straley was the co-creator of The Last of Us, and he left--I think for the same reason Christophe Balestra left and since then, Naughty Dog haven't been the same. PlayStation is incredibly woke, as all businesses seem to be these days, ignorant to what's really going on sacrificing the greater for peanuts, but I think they left because of the uprising political atmosphere. They knew there was nothing they could do about it and an attempt to try and combat it, in today's society would end them up in legal trouble so, they just left, what else can you do when the opposition behaves like a child, screams and yells louder than you want to in raged fits, and will throw lawsuits at you at whatever chance they can, but you don't play that way, so they left. And Naughty Dog hasn't been the same since.
Naughty Dog was huge at one time! They were the underdog that became the top dog but, the direction it's fine, just watch and wait. It's ego, and Druckmanns ego of thinking they're untouchable and can just coast along, will drop them rock bottom, in due time, they could see the same fate as Xbox's teams met. Fans will turn on Naughty Dog because A) Naughty Dog aren't producing, they're not what they once were.
B) Gamers ARE growing tired of the woke culture overtaking their lifetime hobby. They're just more silent about it, it's the quiet cool
Non of this makes sense. I would like to think you didn't spend too much time writing it.
you know it's not his fault that people are interested in what he says, right?
Also, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever.
He's a solid theatre arts person, but he's not a philosopher. Being good at one thing doesn't mean he's Descartes.
I believe that philosophers are more principled than Druckmann, to be honest. It's fascinating that The Last of Us Part II was literally inspired by the Israel-Palestine conflict and was a needed commentary on humanity and ending the cycle of violence, only to have some questionable commentary after 7 October.
I don't hate the guy as some others seem to. He's been a big part of some great games, but I'll never understand the obsession with hanging on all of his statements.
That's a good point in relation to 7 Oct - a far more important issue where valid criticisms could have been made of this guy, but most here seem thoroughly distracted by trivial issues
Sony should try and stay radio silence outside of hard reveals.
It’s painful to wait for any info at all, but it’s less painful than skimming an interview that avoids all details whatsoever.
Commit to radio silence, Sony. You can afford to leverage the trust in gaming output that you’ve cultivated.
Square Enix Kingdom Hearts series, including Kingdom Hearts 4, may be set for release on the Nintendo Switch 2.
absolutely
i feel like if they tweaked the collection a little, it could would been more than enough to run on the switch natively, but alas.
i wonder whos decision that was .... Disneys or Squares.
KH3 I understand but there's no way they couldn't have made the older titles run natively on the og switch instead of that cloud based bullcrap.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
I'd say the big exclusives are generally the most divisive, but I also saw many arguments about how great or crappy Skyrim was.
There are way more people that love TLOU, Bioshock, and Borderlands 2 than hate. I wouldn't call that divise. Those games still hold up well
The Last of Us to be was one of the best games I ever played that made a lasting impression.
After you play the first 15 minutes you're hooked into an emotional roller coaster.
It's been several years since the games release an I pretty much remember every level and character in the game.
Other games I have played I would be hard pressed to remember any of the characters names or their story because I didn't care,I just played the game.
Never before have I played a game where I couldn't wait to find a piece of paper or recording with someone's story on it such as Ish's.
As far as game play there was plenty of puzzles to solve,using stealth to navigate was challenging on the harder modes,crafting was good,using guns and bows felt right and melee kills were excellent. When you punched someone it felt and sounded like a real punch.
As far as people moaning about dumb AI forget it,.. the enemy's AI was some of the best I have seen in a game. NaughtDog acknowledges there was a problem with the AI not seeing Ellie or Tess coming out of cover and the enemy ignoring them.They said gamers would have been more pissed every time an enemy spotted one of them and triggered a fight when you're trying to stealth your way through.I know I would have been. I think they did the right thing and besides it has only happened to me maybe 3 times in 4 playthroughs where my partner clearly walked out in front of an enemy and was ignored.
I could say the same thing about the AI in MGS.Here I am driving a Jeep up to a guard post at night with my headlights on I get to within 30 feet of them and no one sees or hears me I can crawl on the ground right beside the guy and he will shine a flashlight right at me but doesn't see me. I had a supressed sniper rifle and made a kill from 50m away from behind a rock and yet the AI can know EXACTLY where I am, I don't think so. AI is what is is and need improvement in all games so don't pick one game and say it sucks because of an AI issue.
The Last of Us was an excellent game and will go down in history as one of the best.
99% who played the Last of Us loved,I wouldn't call that divise,fanboys don't count
Most of these are probably the least divisive games I've ever heard of. The Last of Us? The most critically acclaimed game of all time that's near universally lauded? That's divisive? I was expecting games like Gone Home or Deadly Premonition.
