Naughty Dog is awesome. By best developers I consider everything, and ND has a lot of updates for their games, their graphic engine is super awesome, their set pieces are awesome, gameplay maybe linear, but linear games have their own charm if done right. Uncharted is the second best linear game imo. The best goes to God of War.
You would be stupid to say Santa Monica doesn't deserve a mention for making God of War linear btw. There's more to a game then it's linearity/openness. |
Pretty much this. It seems some just like to think linearity = bad, all or most of the time. In my experience that is not the case. Often far from it. Some of the best games of all time are linear, but some are open and grant you more freedom. It's just a different style of games, not like good vs. evil.

It seem to be the latest mantra of the so called "Hardcore" gamer.
Linearity = crap.
90% of the time they have no clue what they talking about or are just looking for a reaction.

Well said Shinobi-san. The self declared "hardcore" gamer is pretty much pissed off all the time these days. Barely hear anything light hearted or positive from this crowd.
I welcome a bit of linearity and sense of direction. One can only have so much time for entertainment and has to balance that among other venues of it like movies, music, reading for fun and playing sports. 300 hours for skyrim alone is a bit too much.
Happy gaming everyone and cherish these developers and stop the negativity.
