Naughty Dog teases Uncharted: The Lost Legacy may be 'over 10 hours long'

Naughty Dog always comes off as overly pretentious and self absorb to me.

That reason for not including Drake ridiculous. The Uncharted series will not end, just ND's involvement. What they're really doing is just ensuring Nathan Drake unusable after they leave. Hideo Kojima did the same thing. Snake and Otacon were originally suppose to be executed. He did that because did not want anybody to write those characters after he left the series. By killing Snake that mean whoever picked up the series and choose to keep it in same world would mostly be starting from scratch anyways. It like a deterrent.

Yeah, but that's not really true, since Nate isn't dead. There is any number of ways that a post-UC4 story could drag Nate back into that world, like a kidnapping for instance. Don't want to reveal any other spoilers but given what Nate and Elena are doing at the end of UC4 (pre-epilogue) there is plenty of scope for a new adventure if Sony wants to hand it off to a new studio. It would be a mistake IMO, but there is absolutely no reason why Nate's involvement in UC has to be over.
