You do know that naughty dog are considered the masters of storytelling and gameplay and arguably even graphics. All their games are heralded as masterpieces ... Crystal Dynamics not so much. Tomb Raider had to be rebooted for a reason. 'Open' gameplay really only serves to hide bad storytelling and gameplay mechanics. Imagine if the next GTA was 'linear' you'd quickly grow bored of its bad storyline and swallow gameplay...but its 'open world' so no one will ever know. Bottom line 'linear' games require the best storylines and gameplay. The last of us is universally considered the best game to come out last gen.

They are? Never heard that before. 

Really?? You must have been living under a rock for the last couple decades. Literally every one of their IPs have been universally acclaimed from crash to jak to Uncharted to now the last of us. They have never had to reboot a series and have a constant stream of both technical and creative innovation.
