So a couple days ago, on IGN's "Podcast Beyond" (IGN's Playstation podcast), they discussed the possability of Uncharted 4 possibly being delayed/Rebooted to 2016. At first I was skeptical, but after hearing thier whole discussion out, I actually think it makes a lot of sense.
Ok, so thier argument is that Naughty Dog's Uncharted team (made Uncharted 1 &3) had a shake up because something went down in the studio, and so because of some creative conflicts, or mabye because the game just wasn't shaping up verry well, most of the big people working on the project just decided to leave.
Now whether or not U4 got rebooted or not is unsure, but what we do know for sure is that just about all of the big named people who were working on U4 have left Naughty dog within a span of a couple months.
Here is a list:
Head Art Director - Nate Wells
Head Game Director - Justin Richmond
Creative Director & Writer for Uncharted 1,2, & 3 - Amy Hennig
Voice Actor for Villan - Todd Stashwick
Now the fact that all of these key people left in such a short timespan can't be a coinsidence, so my gut feeling is that the project has likely been restarted to some extent. I don't think they would throw away all of the hard work that I'm sure they have put into the game over the past couple of years, but I think they are probabally going to change up the story and possibly game mechanics some.
What do you guys think though?
Do you think we will still see Uncharted 4 at this year's E3 conference, or do you think that the project has been rebooted to 2016?
