Well that's the least interesting bit about the interview. Personally I'm more interested in finding out more about "We have a lot of ideas outside of the Uncharted universe" and when we are going to hear about them.

LoU2 will probably be my only day one purchase this gen, so I don't need to hear anyone with a vested interest telling me it has a great story.

I am so excited for this game. But I feel that due to the immense hype it has it may not live up to it. Hope I'm wrong!

I don't know. If this was any other studio, I would say theres a good chance of them failing to recapture the magic. But this is Naughty Dog. 

I'd say it has a strong chance to be better than the original, but a considerably smaller chance of living up to the expectations it created. Not only has Unchared 4 already used up the "ND game but bigger and prettier" card, but TLOU2 will likley be releasing near the end of the generation. It's going to be judged relative to everything the PS4 has to offer, but without the advantage if being a new IP.

Hope its true because i have doubts they can make a better game than the first one.

The really interesting stuff in this article isnt in the last quoted sentence.

it fucking better be.

In real life, there is quite a big amount of things that they can improve in TLoU Part II- - the bigger world, better AI, more context animation, more weapons, more infected types, maybe driving a car ( not a that half assed way like in TloU 1 ), maybe some survival gameplay with NPCs etc.
The story is always up to ppl tastes so one will say its better, the other its worse.
I really would like to see graphics at The Order 1886 lvl, but it's impossible in normal gameplay game.
