It's not a joke. I honestly believe this is the most visually uninteresting thing Naughty Dog has produced in two decades.
That doesn't as much have anything to do with how "colorful" or "full of colors" the games appears to be, as much as the colors that ARE there seeming very uninspired and quite frankly not very "realistic." I don't have any feeling of just what they want it to look like in the first place. If I had to guess, I'd say they WANTED it to look like the digitally painted concept art for a typical Hollywood effects extravaganza. Which is just about the least personal thing I can think of in the history of art.
Then there's the character gallery which appears to be a very careful selection of trying to appeal to 20-something male gamers. A guy you can relate to, and a girl you can protect. Neither of which have any interesting visual design quirks of any sorts. To me it comes across as pandering even harder than most have done before.
It's a design that seems excluding and stunted in order to not "weird out" the target audience. It makes me think that the game isn't interested in telling me anything that would in any way challenge my views or values. Like it doesn't want to present any thoughts outside the target demographic's established comfort zone. And that make it look uninteresting to me.
