I've been hoping for an open world survival style game in the TLOU world. Was hoping it would be single player though, but sounds like the MP elements might not be too intrusive.

There's nothing hard to get really
I liked ND's output a lot better before Druckmann was put in charge of all their big releases and if he isn't involved in their next game there's a chance it will align more with my personal taste.

So there shutting down everybody golf's multiplayer service at the same time naughty dog, famed for their love of golf in games new project is ramping up, coincidence? I don't think so.

If any of this is true, thats cool. “Described as a mix of Tarkov and Division with additional modes inspired by the original Factions MP. Single-player-like experience in online game”
This sounds like exactly what I wanted from the TLOU universe if they did MP, but I never thought they would do it. Plus factions. Much better for me than pure PVP or BattleRoyal, I always prefer PVE and Coop stuff like RDR/GTA online or Destiny.
Looking forward to seeing Naughty Dogs animations, voice acting, attention to detail and action that they can add to the online genre. Especially when they say “Single player like experience online.”

You don't wait tables before you get an engineering job and then keep waiting tables because a few customers liked you.
You follow the money.

Neil Druckmann Confirms The Last Of Us 3 Outline Is Written, "We'll See"
While the outline for the third game is written, Druckmann was clear in stating that this doesn't necessarily mean a third game is in the works.www.gameinformer.com

Probably mainly Xboys to be fair.
But I think this was originally supposed to be part of the last game, so I view it more as add-on rather than a replacement to their usual work.

Yet we can always smell your ass in these ND threads.

If that’s the case then they are in serious trouble with the next 10.
But I don’t agree, a free game with a big ip will get them in the door. It’s quality will decide if people stay and become advocates for others to join. The first part is easy, it’s the second part that is the trick.

The Tarkov template perfectly fits The Last of Us and is not overdone like Battle Royale.

I mean a game with Naughty Dog's technical quality, and attention to detail, that's also F2P could be something special.

Did I hurt your feelings?
Don't be so sensitive. I have a feeling it'll have a shit ton of MTX but we'll see. We haven't seen anything from this game, unless I'm wrong and there is gameplay.

To each their own. Personally not my cup of tea, more so the Microtransactions. Hopefully GT7 isn't setting a precedent.

Apparently i made some of you mad.
Geeeez, relax, it's my opinion, and I'm not a fan of microtransactions. If you like that, good for you. Just games. ☺

I absolutely LOVE ND, and I hope they create a new amazing IP. With that said, i pray Sony doesn't do the same MTX as they did to GT7 with TLOU. I'll be so sad.
Sony wants to up the price by 10$ and then on top of that make it a live service just to get more money. It's a slippery and bad slope. IMO

Its Escayg and Margenau. They did Lost Legacy.
Escayg is their only creative director other than Druckmann. He returned to ND in 2021.
And Newman says he's working on the TLOU multiplayer.

This is what I'm talking about! Why are you the only Gaffer I've seen comment on this bs? If Sony releases a PC version of a Sony exclusive and doesn't simultaneously update the game, PROPERLYfor ps5 (as in more than just a simple 60 fps patch), that's a raw deal for us ps5 owners! That's treating the people who bought their latest system like crap.Meanwhile God Of War pc is getting new patches and support out the wazoo while loyal ps5 owners are sporting the ps4 version from the last decade
If even on a hardcore gaming forumn people don't mind Sony catering to the PC OVER their own platform, then no wonder they treat us like plebs. Sony's already done this with Days Gone. They're about to do it with UC4 remaster. Mark my words the PC version of UC4 will have the proper care put into it. PC will have the global illumination that was downgraded on ps5 remaster working perfectly fine as well as all the other odd quirks of it that were not improved for ps5 and nobody will bat an eye.
This is the type of stuff "next gen" ps5 owners have had to look forward to all gen thus far.

Why? iirc that leak came from Jason Schrier. The basis for why ND was supposedly doing the remake makes sense.

Aight, so here's what you do - you grab a bunch of plausible-sounding modern trends, chuck them in a big pot, stir it about a bit, then slap a well-known franchise name on it to finish.
Presto, instant rumor. Your first-class ticket to adulation from the frothing twitter masses who can't go five minutes without jonesing for a hit of news.

TLOU2 has won more fan voted GOTYs than any other game in history. Publicly voted on by players, not critics.
Nothing lol
What is he an insider of?
zero %

I cry about SonyGaf from my chair in Redmond, WA
"they were voted by players. Fair and square. No double user voting etc"
So, what's your opinion on the metacritic score before Sony, as the first company ever, got bad user scores removed. Was that also publicly legit or is it only when it favors your dear Druckmann?

This isn't pragmatic imo; Ragnarok is right around the corner for PS players and Sony is trying to court PC players into their ecosystem. I think Sony would argue they're practicing good business by utilizing resources efficiently.

I didn't know Escayg was back at Naughty Dog, I think he went to Square for a little while to work on Avengers? Good to know!

I think its all pretty interesting. Its most awarded game of all time, even just from fans.
Just depends on the group. Of course some people didn't like it. That was by design.
Funny enough:
Metacritic Users Pick the Best of 2020
Over 2,800 Metacritic users have submitted their favorite albums, movies, games, and TV shows of 2020. Here's what they picked.
www.metacritic.com
And its funny that when, say Ghost of Tsushima won a fan voted award, you weren't concerned about the voting integrity.

1. It doesn’t make sense to make one, TLOU Remaster still holds up.
2. TLOU was added to the PS+ Collection.
3. Bend denied involvement.
4. ND tweeted three projects in Feb, TLOU2 MP being one, no doubt TLOU3 is another and that leaves room for either a VR title or a new IP.

This is fake. No mention of the last of us remake
Tlou part 3 is still not in production though. They just wrote some plot points for it

TLOU Remaster will NOT hold up against a native PS5 remake. Based on JS/Bloomberg article, the idea is for ND team to become familiar with developing for PS5. It's relatively low hanging fruit.
Jason might not have had all details correct, but he's a legitimate journalist. The idea that TLOU Remake doesn't exist is farfetched to me.

Isn’t the rumour a remaster and not a remake?
We’ll find out this year but I’m going with fake.

Likely in pre-production, hopefully they have a new IP coming out before it.

No the report is its a full technical remake using Part 2's assets and engine.

I call it like it is. You can’t make things better if you don’t critique when they are insufficient.
I fully expected Sony to spit shine all their big hitters for ps5 owners not only to encourage others to join, but to show first class service to the existing ones. Has not been the case, and the small sparkles here and there have arrived via a rough road of frustration this gen.

It's more the IP imo. GT7 will obviously do well, and if they brought back SOCOM I'd imagine that would do well. Then there are others like Warhawk, hell even MAG might be a shout with BF in its current state.
But I don't think Factions will be one that will explode beyond it's loyal but relatively small multiplayer advocates. Personally I've liked Uncharted's multiplayer, played Killzone's too and I really liked Ascensions multiplayer and I'd have the same reservations about those games, whether they can pull existing players from the third parties or significantly increase their player counts by transitioning the single player fans who don't really engage with the modes.
But this is just my opinion. They might kill it, and I hope they do. I like to see the industry healthy but if I had to put my mortgage on it, I'd probably bet it has a large explosion that lasts a few months then the audience shrinks to the small, loyal playerbase it always had. And they will probably love it.
I actually think Uncharted is the better fit for the treatment. Highly under rated multiplayer imo

This new writer is worse than Neil. Pretty petty and ignorant in her Twitter rants.
Retweeted a tweet calling Chris Rock a c*** (derogatory word used to insult black people).
Talk about black on black racism!
She's racist against whites as well though, so all good.
Yuck. Great choice, naughty dog.
