>Ex Naughty Dog dev gives insight into what happened with Amy Hennig’s Uncharted 4 and why she lefthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLK-QXpStiYhttps://archive.is/IRwsD>He does not directly name the people or project, but it lines up with timelines and stories that have been reported before.>He states that the project was in production for roughly 3 years and corporate (likely Sony) came in and questioned the project even though their past 3 projects were successful.>He says the leader of the project was “surrounded by people who were always saying yes and were living in the glory of their success going into their fourth project.”>He then says a director from another team at the studio was asked to weigh in on the project. >In the meeting this director openly stated “this game sucks“ to the team working on the game. >This director apparently was explaining that the game had no objectives, it was hard to follow what was going on and that the controls were clunky. >Also saying that what they were working on was not up to standards reached in the past.>After corporate looked at the project, they were threatening to pull funding for the project unless they figured it out. >They ended up removing the director (Amy Hennig) and according to the developer in the interview, this director was replaced with the director from the meeting and two other people who came in and fixed the game.
>>737230070I'm not reading all that.
I highly doubt this is true since 1-3 is still better than what 4 ended up being.
>>737230070>He says the leader of the project was “surrounded by people who were always saying yes and were living in the glory of their success going into their fourth project.So this is Niel's group
>>737230137Me neither, someone tl;dr
>>737230651He's claiming Amy's team was busy huffing their own farts and delayed Uncharted 4. Sony was about to cancel the game but Noel came in on his white horse and saved everything. Feels like this is 100% bullshit
>>737230564this. 1-3 are a perfect trilogy
>>7372306232 was easily the best. iirc they first did the story and then build the levels around it. With 3 they first designed the levels/setpieces and then wrote a story around it which makes it feel very disjointed at times.
>>737230070>>This director apparently was explaining that the game had no objectives, it was hard to follow what was going on and that the controls were clunky.
>>7372300704 fucking sucked desu
>>737230070That's great and all, but does it make sense considering the first three games?
>>737230070don't care, not reading. the man has a betrayer phenotype with a betrayer haircut. nothing he says can be trusted.
>>737230070oyvey
>>737230070>former lighting artistguess they really need some positive press for heretic prophet if they're scraping the barrel this hard
>>737230070What really happened>kike slime used other people work to step up the ladder and fire everyone against his "creative vision">now the studio hasnt make anything of worth in ten years
>>737230070I don't believe that lying jew, Amy's games are way better than anything cuckmann shat out
>>737230070Translation: Druckmann shit talked the game, the team, and Hennig to the higher ups in some slimey "undermine someone to get rid of them" bullshit and it worked.Uncharted 4 being far lesser than 1-3 is proof that the faggot cunt was not fit for the job.
>>737230070>VINDICATEDAll this proves is that Cuckman did indeed fire an old lady for telling him his game was shit.
I liked TLOU2, but unironically. Only Naughty Dog games I've played were Crash and TLOU tho
>>737230564>>737230884>>737231016>>737231185UC4 is a great game, what on earth am I reading? Sure the slow parts are slow but the encounter design, grapple hook, and the car are excellent.
NEXT GUYAlso, Free Palestine. And also, are you going to listen to drunkmann who allows you to point and shoot at the Virgin Mary but makes it absolutely VERBOTEN to shoit at the Torah or the menorah?
>>737230070I don't believe anything anyone who's worked for that company since 2013 says.
>>737230070> Amy was deified, the devs told tells of her. Few knew the truth; she was mortal, as was everyone except Neil, who was special and perfect.> Devs would enter the state of console generation and emerge with new gifts.> Neil evolved before Amy, he was imbued with the Wings of Slop, that enabled him to soar above his peers.> "Cast her out", said Neil. Amy was to suffer the fate of perfectionists and professionals and burn in the lake of the devs.
>>737230137Project project project something about a project
>>737231257The flashbacks, The black women and the ending were all added by cuckmann . All the good stuff was Amy's work
>>737231090It's almost always this. The jealousy and pettiness is basically how most corps run and doubly so for creative types.
That makes sense considered that 3 was fucking garbage from mechanics to story. If they tried to build the game on top of 3, it would have been garbage as well. 4, even with his flaw, was a massive improvement from 3 and it straight up retconned 3. The biggest crime with 4 was the PvP being the most blatant pay to win loot box bullshit of all time.
>>737231257Yes we know, you like being served dogshit. You enjoyed the boring car sections, you enjoy shitty puzzles as young drake, you enjoy watching two grown men struggling with a woman while she emasculates both the character and the player all in the name of subversion.
>>737230070They're both shit
>>737230651>Amy is bad and surrounded by yes men and they delayed the game and made us poor developers sad>Neil is the second coming of Jesus and saved the company and told Amy how bad and wrong and dumb she was.>He got the bosses to kick her out and swooped in to save the game.>God Neil is so handsome and smart and amazing and I wish he would fuck me.
>>737230070Ugh I'm not wasting my precious time reading gossip drama, can I get a tl;dr?
>>737231604The flashback session from 3 is even worse and the story is even more nonsensical. At least drake finally got his happy ending that he deserves in 4.
>>737230070All the uncharted games sucked
>>737231678>>737230851kek, what a fucking egotistical loser
>>7372317582 was good, all the others are bad
>>737230070this is one of those cases where body of work speaks for itself. you can pinpoint when it went to shit as hennig was pushed out.
I get that everyone wanted to idolise Hennin but Uncharted 3 was mocked at release for being a horribly muddled mess especially story wise and it was all down to how they wrote/constructed the game BTS which essentially means its her fault It's why Uncharted 3's story is full of fake outs and rollercoaster storytelling (a bad thing) where one minute some guy has magical powers but then maybe he doesn't but then maybe he does and is running away from Drake for no fucking reason because we need a running sequence AND HOLY SHIT SULLY JUST DIED....oh wait no he's alive that was another fake out
>>737231943Those people had no idea what the future would bring. Also, it leaned more into the dumb blockbuster formula.
>>737230070would you rather believe a jew or a woman?
>>737231943I prefer silly writing to Neil's fetishes
>>737231257Never said it wasn't good. But it is far lesser than the previous three games in the series.Druckmann is an insufferable retard faggot cunt, but he is a good game director. Not as good as Hennig, however. And he still resulted in an inferior product. Good, but still inferior.
>>737230070Sure, completely disregard that the main director of the game was Bruce Straley, but lets insert Cuckman to better fit whatver narrative you are trying to push.
>>737230070>it was hard to follow what was going on and that the controls were clunkyBut this describes TLOU far more. That piece of shit was jank city.
Has Amy ever said anything about this beef? Everyone seems to have their own take of what's happening except her.
I only played Uncharted 4, did the previous games really have dumb shit like zombies?
>>737232351No, because unlike duckboy, she's a professional
>>737231758I like them all. They're fun adventures set in interesting locations with great characters.
>>737232351Iirc, they made Hennig sign a non-disparagement clause. She's get sued if she started talking shit publically.I guess she could leak it through someone, but then it'd be pretty obvious who it was coming from, probably.We do have comments from the time like Sully's VA saying that the shit going on was bad enough that the main trio VAs all wanted to walk away from the project when Hennig got kicked out. They only remained because they had to contractually.
>>737232372Cool supernatural shit was the peak and staple of UC. It kinda suck that UC4 didn't have it. UC3 already kinda half ass ruined it with " it was just hallucinations, lmao" bs.
>>737232372Yeah, it was specially bad in 1 because the whole gameplay was shooting hordes of them
>>737232351She knows better than to say anything when you got one of the chosen people sitting in there bleating his ass off
>>737230070Cuckmann you are literally killing naughty dog Remember no nd member ever saw you working, you are just a useless nepobaby with a trash taste for story telling, you are just using the hard work of others to ruin it with your cuck fantasies
>>737230070>one ruins the LoK series >the other one ruins the studio the first one works in
>>737231257Druckmman is the one who added Nadine and he literally killed Chloes spin off by forcing his ugly gorilla sue there Chloe could have easily been their own Lara croft
>>737231185World is full of this sort of backstabbing narcissists.
>>737232351She doesn't want to appear suicided by 2 shoots behind her head
>>737231090I feel bad for the rest of the team because tlou2 actually had good gameplay. But the story is so fucking bad and everything is so ugly it drags everything down, just like the next ugly bald globina
>>737232750I'm never gonna play those dogshit games but isn't the combat kinda just like Uncharted combat again? Moving from stealth to going loud when you get detected, cover shootan, scrambling for dropped weapons? Which is fun
>>737232878Uncharted gameplay is more dynamic, the character can run, climb, grapple and its a lot faster. Last of Us combat is based on RE4 over the shoulder gameplay
>>737230070>He then says a director from another team at the studio was asked to weigh in on the project>...director was replaced with the director from the meeting and two other people who came in and fixed the gameHoly shit he's admitting Neil Druckmann did a developer coup. Druckmann really is a pathetic piece of shit.
>>737230851I do remember reading somewhere that Hennig 4 was even slower than the final one. It had little shooting and was some kind of detective story.Not sure if it's true though
>>737233039These Nose Rats just cry to daddy to fire/threaten anyone in their way
>>737233021Uncharted gameplay is effectively nonexistent.
>>737230070>>This director apparently was explaining that the game had no objectives, it was hard to follow what was going on and that the controls were clunky.Yeah right, they just forgot how to make Uncharted games overnight after three entries.
>>737232351>Has Amy ever said anything about this beef? Everyone seems to have their own take of what's happening except her.Some people don't have the energy or passion to fight assholes who steal your thunder. Also, in the end, they have to back up their claims of excellence. Just look at Kathleen Kennedy. She could have gone down as one of the greatest producers in history, but her hubris and spite destroyed like fifty years of work in the span of ten.
>>737233158Yeah I know right. The development may have been troubled, but it can't be THAT fucked.
>>737230070Remember: everything always works out in the Jew’s favor, and they had nothing to do with it.
>>737230070>>737230851>kike liesmore at 11
>>737231758truth nuke, they can't hold a candle to the Jak games
>>737233131>all those stories are from journos>one of which is (((schrier)))I'm noticing
>>737233314But it hasn't though. Once there's no money or power left to gain, the faux narrative crumbles.
>>737232672>ruins the Lok series>seriesBlood Omen was just one fucking game and Denis Dyack is a pedo schizo
>>737232351i think shes the type of let your legacy speak for itself. not saying anything makes her more respectful and honourable in my eyes.
4 is weird how half of it is gold and half pure shit.I enjoyed the comfy boat scene when you can ride freely and explore the small islands.I want similar game
It's hilarious how even though /v/ is full of faggots most people here have good taste in games and know Uncharted 4 was an embarrassment compared to the first 3. I put a comment saying how dogshit it was on Twitter and a bunch of tranny's (literally with tranny flag in bios) said I was crazy and 4 was this great game kek. It's almost like people with mental illnesses couldn't see the cognitive dissonance/immersion break with the black lady beating up Nathan and his brother. Not that the game was good up to that point but it genuinely made me want to stop playing
>>737233356Smoothest gameplay ever made only out done by Sly 2 with how responsive everything was. Felt amazing to move around, gameplay was fun and challenging at times.Somehow the retards then thought>let's get rid of that beautiful, smooth, perfect gameplay and replace it with janky, unresponsive controls with generic human character designsI genuinely thought ND died after Jak X since I associated them with fun gameplay, amazing controls, unique character designs and strong art direction. Didn't even register Uncharted as one of theirs.Imagine my disappointment when I was pressured to play "the greatest game of all time and gaming's Citizen Jim" TLOU and it was janky, broken, unresponsive dogshit by comparison.What even happened to basic controls? Why are they so janky and dogshit now? They just feel awful to play.
>>737233505I would even be down for a Cassie Drake game where she has her own friends and competes with shady individuals and rogues while Grandpa Sully and mom and dad occasionally parachute in to get her out of some predicament or lead the way forward despite how much bullshit you'd have to wade through online with a female MC these days. Unless of course the game exemplifies the reason this bullshit exists.
>>737233526Being mad at the story points in Uncharted is like being mad at combat in the witcher games. You play witcher 1 and 2 for the story, characters and world, not the combat. You play Uncharted for the characters, settings and 4 particularly for the improved gameplay.
>>737232083a woman every time. unless she's jewish.it helps hennig is actually competent at her job, modern naughty dog is still living off her work
>>7372335054 gameplay was by far the best. A lot of subtle things like cover being destructible, ammo is somewhat limited, and slightly better enemy AI mean that you kinda have to take risk to keep moving forward to take up space, loot more ammo/gun, and push forward. 3 had the worst gameplay solely due to grenade throw back, which just encourage you to stay in the same spot and wait for a freebie grenade from the enemy to throw back at them.
Next Guy Next Guy
>>7372319433 is hard carried by its setpieces and the writing is at least still fun.cutter got done dirty do, poor guy.
>>737233607ND ALWAYS wanted to make a game like uncharted just like sucker punch always wanted to make a game like infamous. They all started with anthropomorphic cartoonish characters and graphics because that was the only way to make games look good to the normie eye.The second tech got better and they could achieve photorealism they dropped their legacy to chase movie like realism.It's funny because other devs still tried for cinematic realism like Syphon filter. that game was basically uncharted for ps1. A game made with the intention of being "realistic" but because integrating cinematics and dialogue into gameplay hadnt been invented yet they had to focus on raw gameplay that was still fun but had the realistic intention.
>>737230070NEXT GUY
>>737233710and a black woman beating up drake and his equally fit brother twice and being the only villain to actually win in the whole series is also a character problem because her character sucks.if you got to style on her by the end no one would complain as much, but not only she's obviously cuckmann's barely disguised fetish, but she also gets to star in the fucking dlc.remove black and woman and you'd still have a detested character.
>>737230070Funnily enough Uncharted 4 ended up being the only good one as well>stealth felt viable>guns actually had weight to them>platforming wasn't just total autopilot>Nathan's brother was actually an interesting character
>>737231257It's way too bland compared to 2 and 3. It lacks that feeling of adventure and excitement.
>>737233949Yeah it's gay but I get by trying not to think about that part. Also the other characters are still good, can't hit every shot.
>>737230070mucho texto
>>737230070I can't wait for the studio finally to die with Intergalactic, then Cuckman starting is solo movie project and failing so hard we'll never hear from him again.
>>737230070untalented fat jew cunt. pathetic. all she does is recycle popular shit, uncharted is a tomb raider/indiana jones ripoff
>>737230564>>737230884>>737231016>>737231257Four takes a long time to get going but from the middle point onwards its fantastic.My only gripe is that it lacks the over the top set pieces that 2 and 3 had made the standard. (Besides the one chase sequence obviously) And I think that is largely Druckmann trying to make it feel more grounded.
>>737230070>Druckmann was a narcissistic asshole with bad ideas and took all the credit>Vindicated
>>737230070i dont believe a single thing this faggot says
>>737234017i don't hate uncharted 4 nearly as much as most here do, the gameplay and scope was definitely a much needed improvement and i liked how i could customize the experience with modifiers. playing on hard with autoaim was actually really fun for example.i am also willing to accept the brother. but nandine was still very obnoxious and in the end there were no supernatural elements."ludonarrative dissonance" is a rightfully mocked buzzwords but the villains in 4 do that a lot for me. in the first three game you are preventing eldritch artifacts of mass destruction from falling into cartoonishly evil bastards' hands. in 4 you are... preventing some rich boy to find some pirate booty. his goons are basically just hired guards that aren't actively hostile to people. the complete lack of supernatural elements did the gsme no favors.i still think 1 is worse, that game is abysmal dogshit and 2 is such a massive step up it's insane.but 4 has too many flaws for me to like it fully and the narrative flaws aren't as annoying as 3's.i rest that the uncharted trilogy is the only game that's deserving of being a movie game because being a movie was very much their goal and not a replacement for quality like modern games do. being heavily scripted had a purpouse.
>>737232672you mean improve LoK, right?

Uncharted 2 only gets points because it has slightly more interesting action sections, but none of the games had good gunplay so that's a moot point.

Now fanbases in the games I play are rewriting old characters to be gay for each other. We've turned the rarest and most highly regarded form of love (according to Christianity) and turned it sexual and devoid of all of its purity and nobility.
>Hennig's gamesfun>Druckmann's gamesnot fun>Hennignot jew>Druckmann jew
Uncharted 4 is trash. That makes the director wrong and his opinions shit. Close this thread.
>>737239770That was fanfiction in general, and that trend started in the early 2000s.It broke containment and infested the real world because current writers getting hired have absolutely no life experience and primarily read fanfiction, meaning that they ape all of the worst trends of it.They genuinely can't tell the difference between close friends and people waiting for an opportunity to fuck each other, because their real life connections are all transactional and the fiction they read reinforces this.Video game writers of the past were hardly consuming Dickens at a daily rate, but they were consuming fiction written by people who were men of the world.

>>737239881That director was Druckmann
>>737230070Sorry but I just don't believe a word he says. Given his background, he's likely lying.
>loredumps on moviegameslmao
Imagine being Cuckmann
>>737234991my response would be that while not great they're basically the most palatable third person shooters from the chest high wall era because of the movement options you have access to. rushing enemies and scrambling to flank/unflank breaks the monotony of the typical gears whack a mole. there's also occasionally a meaningful set piece that adds some variety.
>>737235560I’m glad everyone is waking up and these marxists are completely exposed
>>737230070Yet another liberal "undermine to get rid of" approach that resulted in them getting all the responsibility and then brand damaging their IP and assets as per fucking usual.Cuckmann can cram his bigot sandwiches up his asshole. I'm never buying one of his products whilst he's there in that company.
>>737240074every time I see this photo I am in awe of how shitty his posture ishis shoulders tell me he never lifted a single heavy thing in his life

>>737230070Uncharted went to shit after she left, though. Actually, the entire studio went to shit after this jew took control of the studio and ousted all of his rivals.
>>737230137FPBP.>>737230070Nobody likes your attempt at Uncharted, Neil. People highly praised the DLC for it, let that SINK in.You ruined Amy's baby, just like you ruined Stratley's.And the faster Intergalatic bombs, the faster you're shown the door.
>>737230137>>737230651damn, actual retards.
>>737230070people should watch the making of tlou documentary, because every single aspect people disliked about the 2nd game was due to a hire the suits forced into their studio to co-write it because they thought they'd be 'too busy' making 2 games at the same timehe's been vindicated for a long time in my eyes
>>737237446>Uncharted 4 is the best video game they have made by every measurable metricit has the best gameplay as far as moving around a shooting, but 2 and 3 have better gameplay sections. Even lost legacy has better gameplay sections than 4
>>737244863>Even lost legacy has better gameplay sections than 4Does it? The train was cool I guess
>>737230070not reading all that, he is jewish
>>737244895It does. Lost Legacy is better paced and the combat encounters are more frequent
>>737230070Druckmann deserves death honestly.
the guy in the video is just kissing druckmanns ass
>>737230070Vindicated? That pretty much confirms he pulled the rug from under her because he didn´t like the game she was making and wanted to make his own, which ended up being soft, almost liquid forgettable poop.
I think Uncharted 1 was the best.

>westranny dev e-drama againDon't care.
>>737230070>>This director apparently was explaining that the game had no objectives, it was hard to follow what was going on and that the controls were clunky.In other words it would've been kino and we were robbed, thanks for saying what we already knew.
>>7372300704 is the worst numbered Uncharted.I'm not blinded by nostalgia because my first contact with this series was in 2020.I went through the series a second time when I played the remastered version of all the games, and I also played Golden Abyss, and it didn't change my mind.
Uncharted 4>Drake wasn't going to use a gun for half the game >it was going to focus on melee/stealth/puzzles and directly address the "Drake kills 1000 guys each game" dissonance>he was gonna chimp out halfway through and have to start killing again TLOU2 >game was supposed to be open world >also less focus on guns >melee combat directly inspired by Bloodborne>retail game ends up hyper-violent as its main selling pointFactions 2 / TLOU Online>mp team finally allowed their passion project>restructure your entire company and 1/3rd of the industry to cater its existence>spend 3.4 + billion for advice>its literally the only Sony live service anyone asked for>"too boring">cancel the game 2 times within 7 years I love how their projects are filled with constant violence and shooting for retards without empathy, but their entire justification for it just to pretend like its morally unjust within context of the game to get away with it and make these unempathetic retards feel like geniuses when the game calls them a bad person for 20 hours
>>737248046>"too boring"Incorrect, Bungie said that the monetization wasn't predatory enough to make the game profitable. That was, of course, before Marathon completely killed whatever shreds of reputation they still had in the minds of Sony and their investors.
>>737232605>>737232702>>737240608wow wtf y'all aren't even hiding your anti-semitism anymore

>>737233505>I enjoyed the comfy boat scene when you can ride freely and explore the small islands.Have you played only the inferior version of this game? For me was the pace breaking in a supposedly urget situation absolutely trash and i hated every minute of the repetive filler content.

>>737234252my only gripe is the total removal of supernatural shitmy nigga found a cursed sarcophagus and literally Shamballa with super yetis and we downgrade to old dead pirate skeletons with creaky falling apart trapsbut i guess 3 started this because all of the supernatural stuff was jsut drug hallucinations
>>737251097her writing is very subparfrom the end of soul reaver to the end of defiance virtually nothing happens because she cant write an ending to save her life its ALWAYS a cliffhangerand her constant use of time travel to bring back dead blood omen characters because she cant make up her own characters outside of Cthulhu and zombie vampirebut people let it pass because she handed a few theatre kids a thesaurus
>>737230070Another druckmann Jew shill threadTldr he's a lying Jew always will be Imagine trusting a rat that stabs you in the back dozens of times
>>737234652>is duckmann a jew?of course, the gay shit in the game makes it obvious let alone everything else.
>>737251837If her writing is subpar, Dr. Uckmann's writing is radioactive. >Forced chain of events to allow the plot to happen>Characters acting OOC to allow the plot to happen>Killing the fan favorite and then making people play as his killer>Whole story of killing only to falter at the literal last second, no player choice, revenge bad
>>737254190im not saying hes good im saying they both suck>your telling me the soul sucking cthulhu horror monster is...LE EVIL?!?!?!?!
>>737244863They're all linear scripted corridors which are of no value, with very few exceptions like 2's train sequence. 4's mini-sandbox areas are the only time Uncharted isn't a movie game.
>>737251837I rather like the open ending of defiance. To the point i dislike Blood Omen 2 in fact. I think an open ending stating the possibility of hope is far better than actually resolving the conflict one way or another. It just fits the tone of the saga better.
>>737234652He got his start in video games by making a side scroller where you kill nazis
>>737230070soul reaver is still better than anything naughty dog ever made
>v pretending Uncharted was ever good purely to spite a Jew/protect their Gamer Gate human shield
>>737230564>henning develops a totally fine uncharted 4>cuckman comes along and shits it upIt tracks.
>>737256537brother soul reaver has some of the worst gameplay ever shut the hell up
Uncharted 4 is one of few games that genuinely made me angry. It's like the game actually hates you for playing the game and being a fan of the prior Uncharted games.
>>737254190>Whole story of killing only to falter at the literal last second, no player choice, revenge badThe story point of "revenge bad don't kill the killer" is a common theme in jewish media made for goyim. Wonder why.

I watched Children of Men for the first time recently and retroactively cringed and how much of a knockoff The Last of Us is or it.
>>737259754Are you fucking retarded? They have nothing in common, plus Children of Men came way befo- oh, I am getting trolled. Yeah, 2/10 for making me reply.
>>737259843Scratch that, I'm retarded, I misread your sentence.But TLOU is a knockoff of literally ALL zombie- and apocalypse media that came before it. It's literally entirely built on clichés.
>>737256750I could have sworn there was another article or video where his coworkers and colleagues alleged if not outright stated druckmann’s ideas need tard wrangling because he wants everything to be “mature” nonsense (as in the dumb shit that teenagers and fuckwit young adult children’s make believe idea of what is dark or mature) like the last of us
>>737259754Yes, that's what I'm saying The Last of Us ripped off Children of Men.>Joel=Theo>Ellie=Kee>FEDRA=Britfag government>Fireflies = Fishes
>another Snoy pr thread
>>737231257You're not allowed to say this because the game features a black woman that was able to match drake in a fight. Honestly I think the first one is the worst, just from a gameplay viewpoint, the gameplay sequences and locations felt repetitive.
>>7372335054 has its moments for sure, boat section is comfy but the jeep section is a chore. My biggest problem is how much time they waste trying to make us care about Sam when he's such an obvious retcon from the previous games. That mansion flashback level is the low point of the whole series
>next guy next guycan't make this shit up
>>737260005>complete a quicktime event to lose the fightPure Sony-exclusive movieslop.
NEXT GUY!
>>737230070>the guy who told sony that the game sucked was coincidentally made the new director of the project afterwardsThere's nothing suspicious about this at all. Hey sony this game fucking sucks and you should fire the director and make someone else the director, oh you want ME to be the new director you say? Haha thank you I graciously accept your generous offer
>lead dev was surrounded by fart-huffing yesmenso exactly like video game dev studios still are
>>737244398She came with the idea of letting Abby live btw.
>>737244398It's part of the director's job to tard wrangle their time. If you let some retarded writer fuck up your game then it's your fault for not telling them no.
>>737235769I think it could be fair to call it something of a betrayal of the series but no supernatural elements makes sense for the story that was being told in 4. it's a story about fool's gold, a dog chasing a car and not knowing what to do when it stops. you can do that story with supernatural elements but it's more complicated, you risk making the what you're chasing intrinsically valuable.
the reality is all of these western modern AAA directors have pulled the wool over the eyes of major studios and investors because they've convinced them that keeping a staff of midwit devs employed for 7+ years to produce a 4 hour movie game is the only way they can get a return on investment and the only reason they seethe at gamers is because they've stopped buying their shit products to help prop up this clown show
>>737230070>>737230564>>737230623>>737230946There is basically zero-percent chance that the lead known for her writing ability got removed because her game didn't have a strong-enough narrative through-line. You are being socially-engineered by Druckmann's network. That's the kind of thing hacks like him do to keep getting work despite failing publicly and spectacularly over and over.
>>737260005>You're not allowed to say this because the game features a black woman that was able to match drake in a fight.This is the weirdest part because I thought that this was the "Big Mike" crew that were convinced every black woman is secretly a man. Like game carried water for their delusions and they still trashed it.
>>737260749Too many kids have this delusion that the creative side are some highly skilled and highly competent forces that should be allowed to do whatever they want unquestioned
>>737260892Cars are arcane engines to dogs, if the story is about a dog chasing one, supernatural elements are basically implicitly called for (and there can be no intrinsic value in something that exists outside your ability to comprehend it). Unless you're just using a bad analogy.
>>737231090this
>>737254417In 3 they simulated the ship capsizing. Apparently a significant portion was procedural, not scripted.
>>7372312574 was absolute dog. Neil's stupid ass idea if having Sam be Nate's bro was both a good guy and actually alive was so stupid. It doesn't make sense why he wouldn't tell Elane about the bro e had that cared for him. Amy's idea was for him to be an asshole and the true villain.
>>737231943>a bad thingnope, U3 was pretty ok story wise, i enjoyed if much more than 'let's suddenly add a brother you left to die' crap U4 introduced
>>737230070Who do you side withA jewOr a woman?
>>737261984Nah, UC3 story is a fucking mess. UC4 story is okay if you straight out ignore UC3 and pretend that UC4 is the first time you look into Nathan's past. Honestly, UC4 is just a retcon of UC3 and try to explore the same theme/storyline but more coherent this time.
>>737239968Technically it started with Kirk and Spock with the original Star Trek.
>>737254190The hilarious thing is that he could have easily kept most of the story if he had just ordered the events differently. >Start game as abbey>Hide all marketing material that shows Joel and Ellie are even in the game. Players assume TLoU is an anthology series with new characters every game>Abby vaguely alludes to her revenge through the story but never says who it was>Crazed killer is slowly murding all of the players companions(this is the hardest part because Druk can't right likable characters to save his life)>Half way point of the game reveal that the killer is Ellie>Game reset from Ellie's POV>Watch the characters you liked, cared for, and just watched get unceremoniously killed off laugh, chuckle and mock Joel as they beat him to death with a golfclub>Suddenly the characters you thought you liked are now your antagonist and you have to murder all of your previous friends as Ellie>End of the game lets you choose weather to play as Ellie or Abby for the final fight as you the player have to decide if you will judge Abby and her friends by the one horrible thing they did or all the positive things you learned about them while playing as Abby.The way it was, no one wanted to play as Abby because we already watched her kill off Joel. By hiding that fact they could easily make the conflict Druk wanted actually work.
>>737254190Even funnier that they make you think Joel ruined the chance of the Fireflies creating the vaccine when it was very clear from the beginning that they were incompetent as fuck.
>>737230070Sure, sure, definitely.
>>737263664I suspect the reason the game is structured the way it is because Druckman was adamant on recreating the rageboner he got witnessing palestiniants kill an IDF soldier. His personal pov fails to connect if you start out as Abby.
>>737230070so a motherfucker vindicates his current boss by throwing his previous boss under the buss?who would have do such a thing....
>>737230070so Neil had the opportunity to sabotage Amy and he took it?that's what I'm getting from this breakdown
>>737263664I don't think there's anyway to make abby likable the moment she kills joel with the golf club. abby needs to not be the one to kill joel, she needs to interrogate joel, but something else kills joel, maybe a swarm of infected
I don't think this thread is bieng fair to Neil
why jews hate amy henning so much? they kept killing her projects for more than a decade?what did she do to cuckmann that justifies that level of pettiness?
>>737264556>accepting that Joel had to die to begin withbowing to the woke agenda. no, it's actually OKAY for a WHITE MALE PROTAGONIST to have his own video game. you don't need to kill him off and replace him with a gay chick.
>>737264556I think some people might disagree, but it's hard to say because her beating him to death was most people's introduced to the character(The others were introduced by internet memes of her retardedly buff design). Some people might feel conflicted killing people they like just hours ago while others like you might feel a level of catharses knowing the level of terror you(as Ellie) are putting them through, having already watched their fear and paranoia when playing as Abby. Someone like you would just choose Ellie for the final fight and laugh as Abby drowns. Others would choose Abby and kill off the character they spent an entire game saving last go around because they think Ellie has gone too far. Arguments would arise naturally in the community over who was right and who was wrong or if the revenge was worth it on either end. Both girls would have lost everything by the end so fans could argue if it was worth it or if Abby/Ellie should have just stayed home.The way it is now, there is nothing to discuss. Ellie lost everything and didn't even get her revenge. Was it worth it? Of course not. Everyone knows it and nothing more needs to be said on it.
>>737231090happens all the time in the entertainment industry, especially television and movies. Just look at the amount of screenwriters that jumps on a big IP despite having 0 respect and interest in it. They just want their name under a big show.Its fucking disgusting, just recently on my mind dunc and egg (you literally got a novella and comic adaption easy job) and you got the new harry potter series where one of the two lead writers says he didnt read the books or watch the films lmao.
>>737263664That would've actually been interesting so that's why they didn't do it.
>>737230070Why would Uncharted 4 have had "clunky controls" if the controls in 1-3 were in pefect working order? Are they reinventing the wheel for each project and for what purpose?
>>737266246>Are they reinventing the wheel for each projectWhile rare, it is possible for a series to have an entry to downgrade in the gameplay department. Happened to God of War Ascension. Climbing animations with the blades were removed and thus, all the combat encounters. The original parry of tapping the block button was replaced with one that required two buttons and was given a massive cool down window which crippled the flow of combat. The worse was locking fundamental moves behind a rage meter that you had to sustain to access them, which required you to constantly hit opponents and avoid any damage. A lot of these changes were because of the multiplayer mode, and that the new combat designer did away with stuff they didn't like.
>>737230070Sure it did. This jewish fag is trying to save face now that he's forever stuck with games and gamers.
>>737230070>(((Betancourt)))>It's not even someone important, just someone that sets the gamma and brightness>Has only worked on CoD ports and Neil Druckmann's Naughty Dog eraIn other words, there's no fucking reason to listen to anything this windbag farts out of his ass.
>>737244398And you think Neil isn't on board with that?
>>737237446>Uncharted 4 is the best video game they have made by every measurable metricExcept for, you know, gameplay and controls. Jak still holds that title, same goes for music and story now that I think about it, and set pieces too. Honestly, ND have only downgraded in all fields except visual fidelity since they ditched Jak.
>>737235120>my name is "PUSH YOU JÕSE"
>>737264938Considering how petty they are. Could it be they were butthurt over Mobius being a clear jew expy and being depicted as a scheming devil worshipper?
>>737264094This is it. People screech about DEI narrative-hijacking of media but never talk about how much we have Zionist/Christian viewpoints dressed up in fiction and shoved in our faces.
>>737266246They poorly implemented a new animation system that was supposed to make movements look better. It happened to a lesser extent in 3 actually.
>>737267982UC2 has an unimpeachable soundtrack. The overture takes me to a different life.
>>737261653That part was insane.
>>737230070>Ex Naughty Dog dev>EXopinion disregardedif he got fired there's a good reason, aka he's lyingamy henning is literally perfect and she wrote legacy of kain, fuck off cunt
>>737239770>"let's make every pair of best friends gay for each other"?No, that's been a thing for a good long while. You only notice it now because it's being used in literally everything and every time it happens it's always some DEI intersex/interracial pairing.
>>737231257I spent the whole game hyped for zombie pirates and all I got was "wow I guess greed was the real monster">B-but your expectations were subverted!That doesn't make it good. Uncharted is the videogame equivalent of a popcorn flick, just give me nice enviroments and cool things to shoot at.
>>737270984But it would be in jest where people would make fun of them with "broke back mountain boys". It's not like now where people expect them to be an item.
>>737239770You're thinking of Life is Strange. That's when it really spiked.
>>737230070>one of the biggest narcissists known to humanity isn’t actually a narcissistic cunt, you guys!Doubt.
>>737271419the supernatural elements were always the weakest part of the previous games, their exclusion was no loss at all. you at least got your zombie pirates in the multiplayer, which no one on /v/ played naturally
I can't wait for Intergalactic to fail miserably, maybe Sony will finally take Cuckmann out back
Naughty Dog hasn't made a good game since Jak 1.
>>737236275Is that a gigantic hair comb?
>>737240074He looks like he's got Tim Buckley Disease
>>737230070I always thought this whole 'Druckmann forced Hennig out' angle and people considering that woman to be a SSS-tier writer bordered on cartoonish, like this dude is some mustache twirling villain.I don't care about the speculation of what happened behind the scenes. He has shown to be an insufferable cunt multiple times and his retarded worldview was revealed through his games. TLOU2 dripped with the sort of libtard snark and woke rhetoric you read on social media (whinging about muh 'bigot sandwiches' in a post apocalyptic setting, plus a bunch of idealistic progressive characterization). Nadine was an eye rolling stronk woman antagonist in UC4, "diversity is as important as gameplay", "we don't use the word 'fun'", unattractive bald chick as a protag in his newest game, etc. etcThere was more than enough shit over the years to make me dislike him and get me to stop buying a NaughtyDog game ever again.
>>737248046I have to give Druckmann a pass on what happened with Factions 2 since it's not Naughty Dog's fault. It was ready to launch shortly after TLOU2's release, and was only held back (and subsequently cancelled) because Jim Ryan put Bungie in charge of the GaaS projects and they in turn kept denying approval in order to remove as much competition for Marathon as possible. And it worked too, this fucking thing sees less players than fucking Concord ever did and it's being kept alive simply because Sony has literally nothing else to replace it with.
>>737274797israeli is the designated cartoon villain of the world. genuinely vile people, this isn't even a /pol/ antisemitism thing
>>737230070>>737230564Druckman's Uncharted 4 sucks. I always felt this way, even way before the TLOU2 drama coming from a big TLOU1 fan.I can't say whether Druckman was on too tight a timeline considering they had to restart the game, and this was all Hennig's fault, or whether Hennig was unfairly castigated for not doing things the way Neil would handle them.Corporate doesn't always make the right decisions. Considering that Neil was seen as the brainchild from TLOU 1, they might have seen his view as more credible. Additionally, corporate also was really worried GOW 2018 was going to suck... You might say that game does indeed suck (an you may or may not be right), but it was a massive commercial and critical success anyway.Meanwhile, Corporate thought that Concord was going to be the next Star Wars. It is all just too hard to say.
>>737263664Yeah but then he wouldn't be like Le Creatividad or whatever so it's not actually a good idea and you can't say anything bad about the Ashkenazi Jews or you're an antisemite
>>737248046I always wonder if they could just release Factions 2. From all the rumors, it seems like the game was almost complete anyway. They don't have to market it as GAAS, just release it, do some updates here and there post-launch and move on. It's not going to be another Fortnite or Call of Duty but I'm sure it'll sell okay to cover the costs considering the brand name. Like look at FromSoft and their Nightreign game, they put some updates, a DLC and fucked right off to make another game and on top of it, it sold okay enough.
>>737264938>what did she doShe was successful and well-beloved in the industry without being part of the jewish schism.
>>737231943Uncharted 3 was really a Nate and Sully bromance, which is why I enjoyed it the most. 2 is a romance that feels eh.
>>737263664Yeah TLOU2 is such a wasted potential in the writing side, it's unfortunate.
>>737257889that's pretty funny.
>>737230070>force director to make a 4th game in a completed fucking trilogy>WTF IS THIS!?!? WHY ISNT THIS AS GOOD AD THE FIRST 3Druckmann is so deceitful
>>737264938She didn't kneel before the talmud.
>>737276291It's not just that. Everything we've been told about what it apparently was like sounds really fucking suspect. Then you realize the people pushing this idea are journos and one of them was (((schrier))).
Reddit's lapping this story up btw. They finally have some pro-Druckman ammunition.
>>737230070Nothing about this changes anything since the leaked story from back then was about Druckmann sabotaging other teams climb to leadership>Unironically blaming toxic positivity which is en vogue right now and not really present back in the AAA heyday
>>737276993K...KEEP ME POSTED
>>737275778>and on top of it, it sold okay enough.Nightreign alone sold nearly 8 million units across all platforms, that's about 8.5 times the amount that Marathon has sold.
>>737276993The top comments in the archived link in the OP are them being extremely skeptical about what's being said and that a low-level visual effects employee wouldn't really be privy to what's happening with the top brass unless he was literally sucking Druckmann's balls.
>>737278189The Masebono comment chain is a pro-Druckman anti-Hennig chain. Read it again.
>>737231257It’s probably the most boring game I’ve ever played and Nadine is as bad as Abby.
