We already had a darker Uncharted, it was called The Last of Us.

I'd be surprised if Uncharted 4 is ready by 2015.

Why?  UC3 was finished in late 2011, assuming they took a short break this game started development at the start of 2012.  


With all the people that left ND or the project, the game might be going through a lot of changes.

It could be ready by 2015, we'll see.

ALL THE PEOPLE? what 3-4 people out of a big team of 200, one was just a voice actor and an artist? Hyperbole much?

I had a feeling that the Uncharted series might be going in a different direction ever since Amy Hennig left. While I really enjoyed The Last of Us, I personally hope that the Uncharted series maintains the tone and personality of the previous entries, which had much more fun and levity than TLOU.

While I am slightly worried about the game being darker than previous titles, I'll still reserve my judgement until after I've played the next game.

Yeah, this is my worry as well. Although I have a lot more faith in Druckmann as lead designer (UC2, The Last of Us) over Henning (UC1, UC3) in making a better game. I want Uncharted to stay a light hearted. I find the them way more fun to play though than the TLOU.

We have enough dark and 'gritty' games as it is.



Good, a 4th game is the time to innovate. I'm happy they're taking it in a new direction.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Ehh as much as I think that Puggsly was not saying without an agenda, we can't deny that 2 of those people were Creative Director and Game Director. So it's safe to assume that it may have some repercussions to the development of the game, possibly a change of direction, depending if the new directors want to follow and tie what was already done or if they have their own ideas and how hard they want to push them.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I like darker games, but I hope they don't deviate too much from the Uncharted formula.

Can't wait for E3 people, can't wait to see Uncharted4 :)

It's still Hyperbole to say ALL THE PEOPLE. I work in IT, people get moved fof projects, leave the company all the time, projects doesnt miss a beat,  it's normal, been blown out of proportion. MAybe in this case it hurt or caused some delay? Who knows, I doubt it, most likely creative differences.

 

The fact that this one is Darker, indicates a change in tone and direction is more likely the reason, creative change nothing more.

Same. One of my most anticipated games for this gen.



Oh great, not another game where you have to tone up the screen brightness to properly see it.
