Im quite intrigued (its a goddamn Naughty Dog after all) but the fact that its being directed by the same people who did UC3, which was rushed and worse compared to UC2 (still an amazing game tho) is making me a skeptic.

There has to be some sort of evolution in the next uncharted, it cant be just UC3 with improved graphics and animations, unless ND wants to their next game to end up like Shadowfall


Main director for UC2 and UC3 were both Amy Hennig

..and what about Richard?

 

More info to clarify:

Richard has been around for every game.


Well he wasn't around for TLoU and won't be around for any more ND game until he gets back to the gaming industry. He's not been with ND since after UC3.

Yeah well I personally hold Jacob higher because TLOU was amazingly designed from a game perspective imo and UC3 had a fuckton of variety that 2 and 1 sorely lacked. I'd be sceptical if we didn't actually know what Jacob did as a sole lead game designer :P Not sure how much is on him and how much is the other team in general, but still.

Like ND has stated several times, people weigh in constantly and it really shows. After 3 UC games, I'm sure someone can step up who knows how everything works. The biggest question would be how they plan on changing it up because ND doesn't really recycle the same exact gameplay. I hope Jacob is there. While TLOU and UC are different games, it sure can help to be on both sides.
