Naughty Dog: "We want to change the f***ing industry" with The Last of Us (with a focus on storytelling)

[crissindahouse]

i don't wish to quote it's too long then haha so, for me, metrium is right and not...

i think he's totally right saying uncharted gameplay is just average. nothing of the gameplay is really something special and yes, aiming for example could be much better. saying to him "than learn to aim" is really nothing which makes the aiming in the game better lol. sure you can learn to aim almost perfect even with the worst aiming any game has ever seen but that doesn't change the fact it's not good in this game.

climbing sequences are nothing special as well. uncharted clearly lives from the gigantic graphic. all places look so great i remember playing uncharted 2 first time (i didn't play uc 1) and i fking loved it just because of the nice places. but if uncharted would only have average graphics and characters, i would never care for uncharted games.

the whole game lives from the graphics which isn't bad it makes super fun to play the game just because of that but gameplay is still nothing special. walking through the desert and all say "wohoooo" put the unbelievable good graphic out of that and everyone would say "bahhh how boring"

but for other points i don't think he's right. for example he says co-op isn't so important. hell for example if gear of war 2 (ok, this coop is not exactly the same, but still...) wouldn't have co-op, i would have played the campaign 50 hours less or so. playing with different friend through the game makes always fun. it never get's boring then if you are in the voice-chat with them. this is the most immportant part for me in gear of war games^^

and he says it is too short and other games aren't so short which isn't true. yes, it is too short but not shorter than halo or so. all these games are too short nowadays maybe it's just too expensive to put 5 hours more gameplay in such a game. we all know games are extremely expensive nowadays so this would maybe cost 10 million extra to have few hours more gameplay.

only games which are still not too shorrt are some racing games or rpg's which live from other things but you see always the same places in these games if you let someone play two times the same place in uncharted everyone would say "booo backtracking" so this is really nothing you can judge only naughty dog for. ok, uncharted 3 could have been a liitle bit longer but it's still not shorter than the games he mentioned. i wonder how long the next tomb raider will be.
