The last one was the first I have played from the series - I wasn’t super into it, hoping this is better. Also am I tripping the graphics look good but are not totally blowing me away? Regardless glad this is finally getting more press I’m stoked they are doing a demo

even watching at 1080p it looks insane! 4k is lirerally going to be eye melting! sony are killing it even this early in the gen. games like demons souls, spider-man, returnal, ratchet and more after only 6 months. they're always on point when it comes to software. if horizon 2 actually makes it this year, it would probably be the best first year ever for a playstation console. if only i had one!

Insomniac is the most efficient studio Sony has.
honestly I’m starting to think Naughty Dog is highly overrated
TLOU2 was great but also pretty divisive and bloated beyond belief with pretense. It also took like 4 years to develop and wasn’t that ground breaking in terms of gameplay.
they also stopped being a two team studio while insomniac is able to manage that dynamic.
just feels like ND is falling behind

That and others as well(that are multiplats). We can't be completely biased to exclusives. There are several good 3rd party companies out there with the same talent.

Nah. You can't compare a story or choice of main characters as a means to judge the company and their output quality. Unfair.

Stop right there.
Insomniac is efficient as fuck, yes.
However, last gen ND gave us:
TLOU Remastered
Uncharted 4
Uncharted: Lost Legacy
The Last of Us Part II
That is insane output.
And TLOU 2 was a fucking masterpiece on every level.
If Sony has one studio thats even more effieicnt than Insomniac, its Naughty Dog

nicesncvsrtoip well there you go.
with how good these devs have gotten with realtime cutscenes on the base PS4 (See below), it's almost pointless to waste disk space on prerendered cutscenes. Though I guess with the new compression systems in the PS5, they might be tempted to do so.

Haters be like...
Expect a lot of “ MS is going to buy X “ threads/social media in the coming days/weeks. That seems like the only thing they like to hear.

A lot of people will look at the in-game cinematics to judge the game's graphics which is deceiving. I'm looking at the actual gameplay which is only a few cuts in that trailer.
The FX though are really really nice! Love the explosions and many lights.

Impressive but ND was more impressive in PS3 era.
Uncharted 1,2,3 and TLOU all within 6 years

On Thursday's state of play that question will be answered.

Yes? Those aren't CGI FMVs. Insomniac's Ratchet and Clank 2016, Spider-Man cut-scenes were also real-time.

i can judge their output. Insomniac released 2 next gen games within 2 ish years after Spider-Man during a pandemic
naughty dog took 4 years for a game that is a pretty straightforward sequel
they’re good, but not nearly as well managed as Insomniac and it shows
Looks great.
But this brings me to the question: when is the launch(window)-period officially over?
Is half a year later still the console launch window?

depends on what "mix of gamplay and cinematic footage" means

Yeah, those are in fact gameplay screenshots.

yup.
that’s my point
their development time has blown up astronomically and their games really aren’t that much different, it’s a pretty safe formula

Nowhere NEAR it bro. Come down a little bit off what you are smoking.

Same amount of games.
And none on the scale as Uncharted 4, much less TLOU 2.
Games take longer to make now too
Anyway dont want to derail this thread.
Ratchet looks godly. Day 1.
One of the reasons im glad I got a PS5 secured at launch.

are we really comparing a remaster and a dlc to full fledged games?

Yes the the explosions and particles look like the best part from what I’m seeing. I am also judging solely off of the actual gameplay segments as it said it was a mix - it looks good I’m just not completely mind blown at this point

Why are you always dragging down everything to fanboy levels? It's time to start growing up, don't you think?
Sony is hitting hard with what matters: New, great exclusive games! That's why I bought PS5, not to play old/dead games at 120fps!
Game looks tremendous, looking forward to see more.

Truly sucks that people have to pick and choose their games. I feel for them. I was like that when I was younger.

I can't wait. I've just replaying R&C (2016) on the PS5 to finish of the platinum, still so good. This series is like a pure distillation of fun, and every aspect is top quality, so god knows what this will feel like when it is made specifically to take advantage of the PS5. Roll on June...

TLOU on PS4 is a remaster, not a whole new game.
Lost Legacy is a much smaller game.
So its like 2 and 1/2 games vs 4
But your right, games are longer to make now so it evens it out as they were bigger in scope.
And personally I like Uncharted 4 over the original series and Love ND even more now.
And Yes Ratchet looks awesome. It seems like there adding more action and making it more fresh. Looks like there taking what they learnt from the Spiderman game and adding it to this.

Lost Legacy is the same length as everything ND made in the previous gen minus TLOU... Around 10 hours give or take
If it released in the PS3 gen it would be considered a full scale release...
So yes.
And its widely known that games take longer, and are more expensive to make each gen. If ND only releases 2 full AAAA quality games THIS gen, i'd be happy.
I'm not sure why we're acting like devs releasing less games per gen is shocking news.
Santa Monica released 1 game.

Agreed it seems like Insomniac is capable of creating great games in a short amount of time. Whatever ND makes next will be good (although I agree about the slide in recent quality) but it'll likely be 4-6 years from now.

I think that dude has his calendar mixed up, games are 6 weeks apart. If he's got time to post on Twitter he ain't that busy.

Uncharted The Lost Legacy is just as long as Uncharted 1 and 3 are, with much higher fidelity visuals, animation, audio, presentation, etc...
.. and about 80% of Naughty Dog's devs made Lost Legacy in just 10 months.
Uncharted 4, Uncharted Lost Legacy, and The Last of Us Part II ... all within just 4 years (by your measure of launch dates.)
Better games, much higher fidelity, longer aka more content to make in each game, too.

Yep, Herman Hurst needs to be replaced by Ted Price.
Since last gen started, insomniac has released
- Sunset Overdrive
- Ratchet remake
- Spiderman
- Spiderman Miles
- Ratchet
ND has released:
- uncharted 4
- Uncharted Lost Legacy
- The Last of Us 2
Guerrilla Games:
- Killzone Shadowfall
- Horizon
Sucker Punch
- Infamous Second Son
- Ghost of Tshushima
SSM
- God of War
It's not even close. I think a lot of that has to do with managing the length of the game. Their open world game was 15-20 hours. Their linear games are 8-10 hours. I want quality over quantity. I have no idea why linear games like TLOU2 and GoW need to be 30 hours long. Why Days Gone, Ghost and Horizon had to be 40 hours long. Even U4 was way too long at 15-20 hours for its single player campaign. Biggest complain for that game was its pacing. Not everyone likes padded games.

For somebody on a perm-ban warning for console warring, you sure find a way to turn every hype thread and every bidy of excitement into console warring opportunities.
This thread was going great at the start, everybody hyped for an awesome trailer and the coming State of Play and you've taken every opportunity to turn hype into warring in this thread.
All on a perm-ban warning after your last perm got turned into a 30 day or whatever. The Playstation community here doesn't need that baiting bullshit and you need to grow up.
